Another Chance to Dream

Each night the sweet orange blossoms bloom

Star light twinkles through the trees

Little birds sing a morning chorus

I feel our love floating on a breeze

Then sunlight breaks into my window

I shield my eyes against that mean old beam

Here comes another nightmare

All day long

But tonight I’ll have another chance to dream

I should stop staring at our photograph

Sleeping in the bed we used to share

At night if feels so real to have you in my arms

Each morning I wake up and you’re not there

When sunlight breaks into my window

I shield my eyes against that mean old beam

Here comes another nightmare

All day long

But tonight I’ll have another chance to dream

Today I’ll work until I’m too beat to move

Then I’ll drink until my eyes slowly clothes

Too tired to go fighting painful memories

I fall into our bed and start to doze

Until sunlight breaks into my window

I shield my eyes against that mean old beam

Here comes another nightmare

All day long

But tonight I’ll have another chance to dream
