newport nightmare, newport nightmare,
newport nightmare, yeah
it took me that day, on the hill
in the rain, to see
life is but a storm away
that day we both felt
like we never felt before
and our petty arguments
came crashing to the floor
and we hugged ourselves and prayed that
we'd live to see the night
the day we fell asleep in your arms
i don't ever pray
except for that day
and the temple on the hill
couldn't offer us anything
and we thought about
the things that we would
never ever see again
and we watched our lives
watched them wash away
life is but a dream
for you and me
life is but a dream
for you and me
life is but a dream
for you and me
life is but a dream
for you and me
and now my life is but a life is but
a dream
a dream
life is but a life is but
a dream dream dream
a dream dream, yeah . . .
life is but a dream
for you and me
for you and me
for you and me
