lyrics

i had a dream that you were real and standing next to me
you played me songs i'd never heard and wrote them down for me
you told me to rehearse them all and add some melody
then i awoke and everything was gone

what message were you sending, could you make the point more clearer?
are you trying to speak your peace from other worlds
you came and went so fast, but you left your mark for years
until we meet again, i'll sing alone

all the things you had to prove - we'll never know
a gift you had to give the world - they let it go
it's hard as hell to catch a break - i'm one to know
we're a lot alike in ways - as losers go

you will always be young...

across the green before the blue turned white with fallen snow
i thought of you and made it through to where you'd always go
i drank a drink and stopped to think of all you meant to me
and everyone who knew you 'in the know'

what message were you sending, could you make it more sincere
i still wait for you to walk in through the door
you came and went so fast, but you left your mark for years
until we meet again and write a song

all the things you had to prove - we'll never know
a gift you had to give the world - they let it go
it's hard as hell to catch a break - i'm one to know
we're a lot alike in ways - as losers go

you will always be young...
we're a lot alike in ways...
