Dialysis Dreams

And there was nothing I could do

I was too far away from you

And there was nothing I could say

You had to let go any way

Everyday I lose a memory

I feel the pull of time

A piece of me dies

A bit of my life unwinds

But I’ll never ask why

Because everyone grows and everybody dies

Last night you came back to life

We took your Ford for a spin

You were driving

You were young again

Please don’t decay

Just stay next to me

These days

I’m missing you

I wish

You pulled through [X2]

But there was nothing I could do

To keep the blood rushing out of you

I hope you felt the pull of it all

Broke my back when I hit the wall

And I can taste the sand

I hope your free running wild

With your dreams in my hands

These days

I’m missing you

I wish

You pulled through [X2]

And there was nothing I could do

I was too far away from you

And there was nothing I could say

You had to let go any way

I remember when you lost your leg

And I remember when you lost your hair

And I knew I was losing you

I’m always losing

Could you feel your heart beat fade?

Did it hurt to let go of everything?

Did that bed feel like a grave?

Did I ever cross your mind? [X3]

And there was nothing I could do

I was too far away from you

And there was nothing I could say

You had to let go any way

I know I’m just dreaming

You’re never coming back [X3]

No!

I’ve got to wake up

You’re never coming back
