Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, the mornin' came
Like a freight train
Bearing down on me from a thousand miles away
Well, it came and gone
And kept rolling on
Laying up all night with my tear-stained sheet as my veil
Yeah
[Verse 2]
I don't want to see you again
I don't want to feel your breath
As you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept
And I don't want the keys to our door
I don't live there anymore
And I'll do my best just to forget the dreams we've dreamt
[Verse 3]
Well, the mornin' came
With the pourin' rain
And I felt just as empty as a pail
With the evidence
And your crime confessed
It don't seem right that it's me that spent the nights in jail
Yeah
[Verse 4]
I don't want to see you again
I don't want to feel your breath
As you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept
And I don't want the keys to our door
'Cause I don't live there anymore
And I'll do my best just to forget the dreams I've dreamt
[Verse 5]
If you feel a chill in the air
It's my spirit hanging somewhere
And if you ever get scared
Look on the bright side
You've got a new life
[Verse 6]
Now the evening's come
And I'm all alone
And I can't tell if silence is my foe or my friend
Well, I'm holdin' on
But I ain't too strong
I've gotta get some rest before that train come back 'round the bend
Yeah
[Verse 7]
I don't want to see you again
I don't want to feel your breath
As you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept
And I don't want the keys to our door
I don't live there anymore
And I'll do my best just to forget the dreams we've dreamt
Dreams we've dreamt
Yeah, oh
Oh
