Last Night As I Lay Dreaming lyrics

Artist Prodigals, The
Album(s) Dreaming In Hell's Kitchen

Lyrics

Last night as I lay dreaming and I dreamt of foreign lands
I dreamt that I had met you and you took me by the hand
And we walked down by the riverside
We watched the waters flow
And you told me when you left me you'd never let me go

And we told the truth in whiskey 'til we made the rafters ring
We'd laugh and chaff
We had a half when the pints had made us sing
And when the night was over we'd stagger home to bed
We'd wake up in the morning
And we'd wonder what we said

We said love lasts forever, I suppose that could be true
When I looked into the embers, I thought that I saw you;
But an ember's only ashes at the dawning of the day
When the mists upon the meadows swiftly rise and drift away
There's soldiermen and sailors
And there's men of high degree
There's tinkermen and tailors, and then there's always me
And if you looked upon me, would it seem so very mad
That I dreamt of you that evening
And the passion that we had
And now it all is over and now you're far away
And if I heard your voice now I don't know what I would say
The shop has long since loaded
And it's sailed from the quay
But i'll hold you in my arms, love, in the dream of yesterday
