The Magnetic Fields - I'll Dream Alone lyrics

Long and lonely nights
I've waited for you to put things to rights
Leaving you to do your thing without
Disturbance from me
Somehow I doubt you'll ever be

Back i'll keep your things
If you ever need them, the phone still rings
And now that you're free of me at last
Your time is your own go have a blast

And I'll dream alone without you
I'll dream alone if I must
Because I guess our little castle in the sky
Just turned to dust
So I'll dream alone, that's showbiz
I'll dream alone from herein
And I'll be trying not to dream of
What was once and might have been
If only I'd known i'll dream alone



Dreams we had a few
But what kind of dream beats
You black and blue?
I wanted to scream, "Don't go away!"
But nothing came out all I could say is

I'll dream alone without you
I'll dream alone if I must
Because I guess our little castle in the sky
Just turned to dust
So I'll dream alone, that's showbiz
I'll dream alone from herein
And I'll be trying not to dream of
What was once and might have been
If only I'd known i'll dream alone
