BAD DREAMS
A. Semerdjian
She says she’s been having real bad dreams
Me with these lost girls as impossible as it seems
I tell her not too worry her sweet head
That’s not enough she says to keep me safe in my own bed
It begins with a silly proposition
And ends with a lack of recognition
And she cries at the movies
When the hero slips
Though we know it’s temporary
She feels it sticks
She’ll promise that she’ll try to stay awake
But an honest day of work always gets me in too late
When I’m finally home she’s curled up on the couch
But something’s stirring in her head and I just can’t get it out
It starts with a simple suspicion
Turns into hyperventilation…
And she cries at the movies
When the hero slips
Though we know it’s temporary
She feels it sticks
Bridge
