Fireman

[Verse 1] Dreamed I was a fireman I just smoked and watched you burn Dreamed I was an astronaut I shot you down like a juggernaut Dreamed we were still going out Had that one a few times now Woke up to find we were not It’s good to be awake [Verse 2] Dreamed I was a tidal wave I ravaged your coast, there were no survivors Dreamed I was your landlord I showed your place when you had lovers If I was a vampire I wouldn’t suck your blood Then I dreamed I was you The sweetest dream I have had [Chorus] If you could hear The dreams I’ve had, my dear They would give you nightmares for a week But you’re not here And I can never sleep Come home so I can be a creep [Verse 3] Dreamed I was a dream Stole you away, away in your sleep Saved you from a fire Gun for hire Introduced you to a vampire Wave crashed on the beach We rolled around in its foamy grasp Kissing in the chaos of a kelpy sea Seems I couldn’t save you from me [Chorus] If you could hear The dreams I’ve had, my dear They would give you nightmares for a week But you’re not here And I can never sleep Come home so I can be a creep [Bridge] Maybe I’m obsessive to think like this Probably not impressing you With my cheap tricks Honey, it’s depressing what Depression does to some I’ll play the part for hours but I know you’ll never come [Chorus] If you could hear The dreams I’ve had, my dear They would give you nightmares for a week But you’re not here And I can never sleep Come home so I can be a creep
