Floating down through the clouds
Memories came rushing up to meet me now
In the space between the heavens
And in the corner of some foreing field
I had a dream, I had a dream
Goodbye Max, goodbye ma
After the service when you´re walking slowly to the car
And the silver in her hair shines in the cold November air,
you hear the tolling bell
and touch the silk of your lapel,
and as the tear drops rise to meet the confort of the band
you take her frail hand and hold on to the dream.
A place to stay, enough to eat,
Somewhere old heroes shuffle safely down the street,
Where you can speak out loud about your doubts and fears,
And what´s more noone ever disappears.
You never hear their standard issue kicking in your door.
You can relax on both sides of the tracks,
And maniacs don´t blow holes in bandsmen by remote control.
And everyone has recourse to the law
And noone kills the children any more
And noone kills the children any more
Night after night
Going round and round my brain
His dream is driving me insane.
In the corner of some foreing
The gunner sleep tonight?
What´s done is done
We cannot just write off final scene
Take heed of this dream
Take heed?
