On that night I had a dream
I dreamt that this was all a dream
I ignored the sound of my mother's voice
Even though I could hear it trembling
There's no one on the other line
There was nothing wrong, everyone is well
I told myself until I heard the ring again
The phone...
I pa**ed a card aisle the other day
I stopped to glance for a second
I thought about the cards that came every holiday
Every occasion
Wait, won't you stay here for me?
I haven't seen you since Christmas morning
We can speak in dreams, I dream to believe
Hey, you weren't so quick to grow up
Your laughter and love lit this whole town up
Here's my postcard, wish you were here
Oh how I wish you were here
And when I awoke I kept myself from hysterics
But I couldn't dam the flood of memories
They're small things
Triggers that ignite a serious of movies in my head
The good ones, bad ones, the kind that make me laugh
The kind that make me sick to my stomach
And I was an anchor of stone
Completely motionless and alone
I was an anchor of stone
Completely motionless and alone...
But that night as I answered the phone
I knew the words before they were told
Yet somehow I kept waiting to awake
Wait, won't you stay here for me?
I haven't seen you since Christmas morning
We can speak in dreams, I dream to believe
Hey, you weren't so quick to grow up
You're laughter and love lit this whole town up
Here's my postcard, wish you were here
On that night I had a dream, I dreamt it was all a dream
