I dreamed of my old lover last night I wonder if I spoke out loud If by chance my husband overheard He'd put my face back in the crowd His eyes were clear and gentle then He'd kiss the worries from my brow I long to fall to sleep again And I wonder how he would look now Would our kids grow stubborn or grow strong Would their limbs bronze insult to the sun I wonder how it feels but then
I rarely dream of anyone In the songs of shame and tales of dread Where they seal the lovers lips with lead And all the vines wind through their eyes But no one knows this pa**ion now But No one knows this pa**ion now So I keep this fancy to myself I keep my lipstick twisted tight I long to fall to sleep again 'Cos I dreamed of my old lover last night
