I used to laugh aloud
When you were around
Now you're far away
You can't even hear me
And every little word
You said to me
As I fell asleep
Now they're fading whispers
I can't remember
I believed we were in this together
Giving everything for a chance at forever
And I'm a dreamer
Who shoulda known better
And I thought you had a dream here too
Oh, and I'm a dreamer
Who shoulda known better
Cause now I have to live
I have to live in this dream without you
With every other word
You made me yours
With every wish you breathed
And every promise
Did you read my mind
Tell me every line
That I longed to hear
You were so convincing
But you left me empty
I remember when we were both so naive
And now you're telling me that you never believed
Oh, and I'm a dreamer
Who shoulda known better
And I thought you had a dream here too
Oh, and I'm a dreamer
Who shoulda known better
Cause now I have to live
I have to live in this dream without you
backvocals:
(i'm just a dreamer, dreamer
i shoulda known better, better)
When did it all become too much
Couldn't you fight a little harder for us
You traded dreams for reality
And promises you couldn't keep
That nothing was the way it seemed
