Nellie McKay - If I Ever Had a Dream lyrics
[Nellie McKay - If I Ever Had a Dream lyrics]
I was thinking bout her, thinkin bout me
Thinkin bout us, what we gon' be
Open my eyes yeah, it was only Just A Dream
So I travelled back, down that road
Wish she'd back, no one knows
I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream
I was at the top and now
It's like I'm in the basement
Number one spot and now she
Find her a replacement
I swear now I can't take it
Knowing somebody's got my baby
And now you ain't around baby I can't think
I shoulda put it down, shoulda got the ring
Cos I can still feel it in the air
See her pretty face run my
Fingers through her hair
My lover, my life, my shawty, my wife
She left me, I'm tied
Cos I knew that it just ain't right
I was thinking bout her, thinkin bout me
Thinkin bout us, what we gon' be
Open my eyes yeah, it was only Just A Dream
So I travelled back, down that road
Wish she'd back, no one knows
I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream
When I be ridin' man I swear I
See her face in every turn
Tryna get my Usher on but I can't let it Burn
And I just hopes she know that she
The only one I earn for ?
Didn't give her all my love
I guess now I got my payback
Now I'm in the club thinking
All about my baby
Hey, she was so easy to love
But wait, I guess that love wasn't enough
I'm going through it everytime that I'm alone
And now I'm missing
Wishing she'd pick up the phone
But she made the decision that
She wanted to move on cos I was wrong
I was thinking bout her, thinkin bout me
Thinkin bout us, what we gon' be
Open my eyes yeah, it was only Just A Dream
So I travelled back, down that road
Wish she'd back, no one knows
I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
And now there gone and you wishing
You could give them everything
Said if you ever loved somebody
Put your hands up
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
Now there gone and you wishing
You could give them everything
I was thinking bout her, thinkin bout me
Thinkin bout us, what we gon' be
Open my eyes yeah, it was only Just A Dream
So I travelled back, down that road
Wish she'd back, no one knows
I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream
I was thinking bout her, thinkin bout me
Thinkin bout us, what we gon' be
Open my eyes yeah, it was only Just A Dream
So I travelled back, down that road
Wish she'd back, no one knows
I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream
Thinkin bout us, what we gon' be
Open my eyes yeah, it was only Just A Dream
So I travelled back, down that road
Wish she'd back, no one knows
I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream
