  • In a dream I saw you walkin'
    Like a kid alive and talking, that was you
    In the classroom you were teachin'
    On the streets you were policing that was you

    To the one I now know most
    I will tell them of your ghost like a thing
    That never, ever was
    And all that ever mattered
    Will some day turn back to batter like a joke
    Behind thin walls you hid your feelings
    Takes four legs to make a ceilin', like a thing

    In a dream I saw you walkin'
    With your friends alive and talking, that was you
    Well I saw it in your movement
    And even though you never knew it
    Well, I knew, just how sweet it could be
    If you'd never left these streets
    You had me worried! So worried
    That this would last
    But now im learning
    Learning that this will pass Writer/s: James Olliges Jr
