Tried so hard to explain The way things are and how quick they can change But you never listened you just turned your head Never even heard a single word that he said While it's true now that I'm not a saint I felt pain when you live to hate Said it before and I'll say it again Leave me alone man or treat me like a friend I had a dream last night Everybody's laughing and everything was alright Still some hope in sight, that was last night I had a dream last night Nobody's crying, nobody's frightened Still some hope in sight, that was last night Well if it seems like I sound like the rest We're trying hard not to be too depressed Once they take everything I've left, it's so easy So if you're dreaming I hhope that you do Wish for the best and hope that it comes true Who knows what they'll leave when they're through I had a dream last night Everybody's laughing and everything was alright Still some hope in sight, that was last night I had a dream last night Nobody's crying, nobody's frightened Still some hope in sight, that was last night
