Life is but a dream Life is but a dream Life is but a dream I've never seen this before I can see wet and sky so blue Something else is hurting me The time has come to talk of things Of shoes and bells and wedding rings And why say goodbye, why say no more? They've eaten everything, there's nothing left I'm sorry I The sky la la la la I can see mother I can see sister I can see brother Shadows, shadows I hear her crying To play with them was such a trick They make me sing I wait for you, no answer came And after the day was done The night came to spoil our fun We said goodbye We were left to cry Because of what was said Because of what they said Come and walk with me A pleasant talk, a given hand But never a word to say Meaning nothing to say You could not see the clouds Because no clouds were in the sky And no birds, no birds to fly
