I Dream Of You

(back) (listen / download)

When I woke up before the sunrise
It hit me quick that you were gone
You know that chain made out of silver
It holds your ring right by my heart

I know you left me to start over
And build a life with another man
Yeah I was angry, I was jealous
But heaven help me I miss you girl

So I dream of you trying on my clothes and writing in my All Stars
I dream of you packing up and heading north by the Midnight Sun
I dream of you driving all night long until you pass Chicago
Yeah I dream of you, steal a car and speed it right back to my arms
I am fading to a brand new shade of blue
I dream of you

I tried to treat you kind and patient
And not to envy or to boast
But love is like a broken record
A sacred silence in the rain

Now I don’t mind if you wake me
With a bottle in your hand
Just remember when you smile for me
You pick me up like broken glass
