Lyrics

I had a dream

I got ev ’ry thing I want ed.

Not what you’d think,

and if I’m be ing hon est, it might have been a (E)night mare

to an y one who (C#)might care.

Thought I could fly,

so I stepped off the Gold en, mm.

No bod y cried,

no bod y e ven no ticed.

I saw them stand ing (E)right there,

kind a thought they (C#)might care.

I had a dream

I got ev ’ry thing I want ed.

But (E)when I wake up, I see

(C#)you with me.

And you say, “As long as I’m here,

no one can hurt you.

Don’t want to lie here,

but you can learn to.

If I could change

the way

that you see your self,

you would n’t won der why you’re here.

They don’t de serve you.”

I tried to (E)scream,

but my head was un der (D)wa ter.

They called me (E)weak,

like I’m not just some bod y’s (D)daugh ter.

It could have been a (D)night mare,

but it felt like they were (C#)right there.

And it feels like yes ter day was a (E)year a go,

but (C#)I don’t want to let an y (D)bod y know.

’Cause ev ’ry bod y wants some thing (E)from me now,

and (C#)I don’t want to let them down.

you.”

(E)If I knew it all then, would I do it a gain, would I do it a gain?

(E)If they knew what they said would go straight to my head, what would they say in stead?

(E)If I knew it all then, would I do it a gain, would I do it a gain?

(E)If they knew what they said would go straight to my head, what would they say in stead?
