I had a dream that you were mine I've had that dream a thousand times A thousand times, a thousand times I've had that dream a thousand times I left my room on the west side I walked from noon until the night I changed my crowd, I ditched my tie I watched the sparks fly off the fire I found your old house, I didn't even try They'd closed the shutters, they'd pulled the blinds My eyes were red, the streets were bright Those ancient years were black and white The 10th of November, the year's almost over If I had your number I'd call you tomorrow. If my eyes were open, I'd be kicking the doors in But all that I have is this old dream I've always had A thousand times, a thousand times I've had that dream a thousand times A thousand times a thousand times I've had that dream a thousand times I left my room on the west side I walked from noon till the night I changed my crowd, I ditched my tie I watched the sparks fly off the fire I found your old house, I didn't even try They'd closed the shutters, they'd pulled the blinds I had a dream that you were mine I've had that dream a thousand times But I don't answer questions, I just keep on guessing My eyes are still open, the curtains are closing And all that I have is this old dream I must have had A thousand times, a thousand times I've had that dream a thousand times A thousand times, a thousand times I've had that dream a thousand times A thousand times, a thousand times I've had that dream a thousand times A thousand times, a thousand times I've had that dream a thousand times
