on that night i had a dream, i dreamt that this was all a dream,
i ignored the sound of my mother's voice even though i could hear it trembling,
there's no one on the other line, there was nothing wrong, everyone is well,
i told myself until i heard the ring again.

the phone...

i passed a card aisle the other day, i stopped to glance for a second,
i thought about the cards that came every holiday, every occasion,

wait, won't you stay here for me? i haven't seen you since christmas morning,
we can speak in dreams, i dream to believe,
hey, you weren't so quick to grow up, your laughter and love lit this whole town up,
here's my postcard, wish you were here.

oh how i wish you were here,
and when i awoke i kept myself from hysterics,
but i couldn't dam the flood of memories,

they're small things, triggers that ignite a series of movies in my head,
the good ones, bad ones, the kind that make me laugh, the kind that make me sick to my stomach,

and i was an anchor of stone, completely motionless and alone, i was an anchor of stone, completely motionless and alone...

but that night as i answered the phone, i knew the words before they were told,
yet somehow i kept waiting to awake.

wait, won't you stay here for me? i haven't seen you since christmas morning,
we can speak in dreams, i dream to believe,
hey, you weren't so quick to grow up, you're laughter and love lit this whole town up,
here's my postcard, wish you were here.

on that night i had a dream, i dreamt it was all a dream.
