In a dream I saw you walkin' Like a kid alive and talkin' That was you In the classroom you were teachin' On the streets you were policin' 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 feelins' Takes four legs to make a ceilin' Like a thing In a dream I saw you walkin' With your friends alive and talkin' 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 You had me worried, so worried That this would last But now I'm learning Learning that this will pass But now I'm learning Learning that this will pass
