lyrics

Bad Dreams - Words and Music by Douglas Osborne

Oh, I’ll be alright
oh, demons in the night
I was thinking of you
ah...next thing I knew
I had lies and I had cries and I had screams

I was having bad dreams about you
and I was sleeping ‘til noon
I was having bad dreams about you
and I can’t get in tune with you

hey, you were running away
hey, with nothing to say
you had all of your things
you were cutting the strings
well I had lies and I had cries and I had screams

I was having bad dreams about you
and I was sleeping ‘til noon
I was having bad dreams about you
and I can’t get in tune with you

it must have been the ice cream I ate
a rocky road that straightens late
to lead me where the desert’s done
and the city bakes in the bastard sun
i get to sleep dreaming I’m the devil’s friend
yet I wake up screaming is this the end

I’m having bad dreams about you
and I was sleeping ‘til noon
I was having bad dreams about you
and I can’t get in tune with you
