Dreams lyrics
The CorrsNow here you go again, you say you want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down
It's only right that you should play the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound
Of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost
Yeah, thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Yeah, women they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you'll know, you'll know...
Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
Well It's only me that wants to wrap around your dreams and
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell
Dreams of loneliness
Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had (drives you mad)
And what you lost (remember what you had)
Thunder only happens when it's raining
(Thunder only happens when it's...)
Players only love you when they're playing
(Players only love you when they're...)
Yeah, women they will come and they will go, (they will go...)
When the rain washes you clean you'll know...
Yeah, thunder only happens when it's raining
(Thunder only happens when it's...)
And players only love you when they're playing
(Players only love you when they're...)
Yeah, women they will come and they will go, (they will go...)
When the rain washes you clean you'll know...
You will know, (the heartbeat drives you mad)
You will know, (remember what you had)
Oh-woah-woah (You'll know...)
Know (the heartbeat drives you mad)
You will know, (remember what you had)
Oh-woah-woah, (You'll know...)
