Just A Dream Lyrics - Carnival Ride - Carrie Underwood

It was two weeks after the day she turned eighteen 

All dressed in white 

Going to the church that night 

She had his box of letters in the passenger seat 

Sixpence in a shoe, something borrowed, something blue 

And when the church doors opened up wide 

She put her veil down 

Trying to hide the tears 

Oh, she just couldn't believe it 

She heard the trumpets from the military band 

And the flowers fell out of her hands 

Baby why'd you leave me 

Why'd you have to go? 

I was counting on forever, now I'll never know 

I can't even breathe

It's like I'm looking from a distance 

Standing in the background 

Everybody's saying, "He's not coming home now." 

This can't be happening to me 

This is just a dream 

The preacher man said, "Let us bow our heads and pray. 

Lord please lift his soul, and heal this hurt." 

Then the congregation all stood up and sang the saddest song that she ever heard 

Then they handed her a folded up flag 

And she held on to all she had left of him 

Oh, and what could have been 

And then the guns rang one last shot 

And it felt like a bullet in her heart 

Baby, why'd you leave me 

Why'd you have to go? 

I was counting on forever, now I'll never know 

I can't even breathe 

It's like I'm looking from a distance 

Standing in the background

Everybody's saying, "He's not coming home now." 

This can't be happening to me 

This is just a dream 

Oou oh Baby, why'd you leave me 

Why'd you have to go? 

I was counting on forever, now I'll never know 

Oh, I'll never know 

It's like I'm looking from a distance 

Standing in the background 

Everybody's saying, "He's not coming home now." 

This can't be happening to me 

This is just a dream 

Oh oooh this is just a dream 

Just a dream 

Yeah, yeah
