[Lori McKenna - The Dream lyrics]
I had a dream last night that
The two of you met
You were sitting side by side
Talking like old friends
He looked just like I remember
Wearing that coat from ‘85
You were smiling like you are right now
All free and full of wild
I had a dream last night that
The two of you met
He was telling you a story
I'm not sure which one it was
Using his hands to mark out something
Maybe the size of his love
He never really spelled that out when he
Was down here on the ground
But, it's all right there
In between the words and I
Can hear it clearly now
I had a dream last night that
The two of you met
Yeah, he was something, he was one of a kind
And you would have loved him if
You were born in his time
But he's somewhere in your eyes
Between Heaven and Earth
It's a damn long view
I had a dream last night that
The two of you met
I was struck by the vision
The kind of dream you dream to dream
And whatever you two talked about
That's between you and him, not me
I hope he told you what's important
What to let go and what to hold
And if he mentioned life is short, well
That's because he knows
I had a dream last night that
The two of you met
Yeah, he was something, he was one of a kind
You would have loved him if you
Were born in his time
But he's somewhere in your eyes
Between Heaven and Earth, it's a damn long
Damn long view damn long view
I had a dream last night that
The two of you met
You were sitting side by side
Talking like old friends
The two of you met
You were sitting side by side
Talking like old friends
He looked just like I remember
Wearing that coat from ‘85
You were smiling like you are right now
All free and full of wild
I had a dream last night that
The two of you met
He was telling you a story
I'm not sure which one it was
Using his hands to mark out something
Maybe the size of his love
He never really spelled that out when he
Was down here on the ground
But, it's all right there
In between the words and I
Can hear it clearly now
I had a dream last night that
The two of you met
Yeah, he was something, he was one of a kind
And you would have loved him if
You were born in his time
But he's somewhere in your eyes
Between Heaven and Earth
It's a damn long view
I had a dream last night that

The kind of dream you dream to dream
And whatever you two talked about

Damn long view damn long view
I had a dream last night that
The two of you met
You were sitting side by side
Talking like old friends
