Today I felt my heart Slide into my belly So I puked it up with liquor And I slept right where I lay And I dreamed the backs of cards For the faces were not telling No I never have felt sicker And I do not want to wake Here comes another nightmare of you again Another velvet nightmare come true again Oh, I should have seen it coming Oh, please don't let it end My nightmare of you again No I never would have come here But my eyes they would not focus
So I took my last three dollars And I spent them on a drink I had visions of you dear But they floated without notice All these drunkards do is holler Till this drunkard cannot think A curtain falls A scene rewinds It seems your blue eyes glisten Here comes another nightmare of you again Another velvet nightmare come true again Oh, I should have seen it coming Oh, please don't let it end My nightmare of you again
