You look like you've been losin' sleep Said a stranger on a train I fixed him with an ice cold stare and said I've been havin' those dreams again In one dream there's this girl I love And we dance every wakin' breath And in the other they've thrown me in a cell And they're tryin' me for her death I'm only young and young in love As I hold that girl today But I'm old and tired and in the cell And I've nigh on withered away Y'see my baby' gone away too long And I'm chokin' back the tears Disheveled star in a burnt out bar And I'm talkin' in my drink She promised me the world and more How could she do this to me? And now mine's tumblin' down around But at least my eyes can see And those stars in the sky are for me So as this fagged-out tinsel town Waves so-long to the sun I lay here calmly on my bed And the trigger of my gun And should that no good woman show up Dancin' from a dream I'll squeeze it twice and not think twice And relish every scream
