chill in the air

well

the morning came like a freight train

bearing down on me from a thousand miles of rail

well

it came and gone and kept rolling on

laying up all night with my tear-stained sheet as my veil

i don't wanna see you again

i don't wanna feel your breath

as you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept

and i don't want the keys to our door

i don't live there anymore

and i'll do my best just to forget the dreams we dreamt

well

the morning came with the pouring rain

and i felt just as empty as a pail

with the evidence and your crime confessed

don't seem right that it's me who's spending nights in jail

i don't wanna see you again

i don't wanna feel your breath

as you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept

and i don't want the keys to our door

i don't live there anymore

and i'll do my best just to forget the dreams i dreamt

if you feel a chill in the air

it's my spirit hanging somewhere

and if you ever get scared

look on the bright side

you got a new life

now the evening's come and i'm all alone

and i can't tell if silence is my foe or my friend

well

i'm holding on but i ain't too strong

i gotta get some rest before that train comes back 'round the bend

i don't wanna see you again

i don't wanna feel your breath

as you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept

and i don't want the keys to our door

i don't live there anymore

and i'll do my best just to forget the dreams we dreamt

dreams we dreamt.
