THE DREAM'S LOST ON ME
I wake up laughing thrown from a nightmare I come down standing when I'm tossed in the air bright as Tiajuana like a dose of Bella Donna I could cry but I don't wanna and the dream's lost on me
I come out shootin' when trouble comes knockin' I greet bad news by sending it walkin' happy or just crazy relaxed or lazy gonna keep my vision hazy and the dream's lost on me
Cares are all buckshot and buffalo every dark has an afterglow I'm not afraid of what's down below I keep my sights on the sky
I wake up laughing thrown from a nightmare I come down standing when I'm tossed in the air bright as Tiajuana like a dose of Bella Donna I could cry but I don't wanna and the dream's lost on me
I come out shootin' when trouble comes knockin' I greet bad news by sending it walkin' happy or just crazy relaxed or lazy I'm gonna keep my vision hazy and the dream's lost on me |
COMMENTS
quoted from the book 'Deborah Harry: Platinum Blonde - A Portrait By Cathay Che' - 1999
"You and Romy wrote 'The Dream's Lost On Me' together right? - Yeah, and it's so sweet. She said, I wrote these words and I don 't know if you'll like them. We could write something else... And I looked at them and I said, Are you crazy? This is so beautiful, so perfect - I just love it. I want to do that one in Spanish also."
