Another time, another day
|
Another baby on the way
|
A dreamboy for your nightmare nights
|
Who never shouts and never fights
|
Happy with your 2.2
|
What else is there for you to do
|
But turn and wet the baby's head
|
And pray he will be happier than you or me?
|
That's how it's meant to be
|
It's called a lifetime
|
At first you never notice
|
Then the years go flying by and I say
|
Tread lightly in your dreams
|
They might come true for you tomorrow
|
|
Say sorry to the boys and girls
|
You're sorry for this bloody world
|
Sorry for the sick and old
|
And sorry for the lies you told
|
Sorry for the things I did
|
The thighs we should have left unsaid
|
And walked away instead of
|
Rubbing salt on all those open sores and wounds
|
We should have left to heal
|
I never knew just what to feel or to expect
|
I tried to stretch my mind but I'd just
|
Get my body wrecked and now I
|
Tread lightly in my dreams
|
They might come true tomorrow
|
And I don't sleep at night in case
|
I don't wake up tomorrow
|
I curse the day I met you
|
But I won't forget you
|
Not in my lifetime
|
|
Another time, another day
|
You'd never give your heart away
|
You'd never think and never cry
|
You'd look the devil in the eye
|
And tell him to be gone, bye bye
|
He'll never get you in this lifetime
|
He'd love to touch you but his hands are tied
|
So just tread lightly in your dreams
|
They might come true for you tomorrow
|
Tread lightly in your dreams
|
They might come true for you tomorrow
|
They might come true for you tomorrow
|
They might come true tomorrow
|

Tread Lightly
