Last Night I Dreamed Of Henry Thomas Lyrics - Deacon Blue

Lily love that's a 

Beautiful name 

Your precious gifts are not the same 

Since they faded away 

The song so distant 

But it still rings true your 

Beautiful hands were rudely used 

To make things pay 

Every minute of every day 

You don't get angry `bout what`s taken away 

Is only real life 

Every second of eternal light 

Piercing through this sorrowful night 

Will bring the sad heart 

The cold heart 

To love again 

Last night I dreamed of 

Henry Thomas in the 

Delta light his rusty pipes 

They drifted away 

Standing in some 

Dusty patch 

It felt so close that I could almost catch 

His breath on me 

Every minute of every day 

You don't get angry `bout what`s been taken away 

Is only real life 

Every second of eternal light 

Piercing through this sorrowful night 

Will make the sad heart 

The cold heart 

To love again 

Every minute of every day 

You don't get angry `bout what`s been taken away 

Is only real life 

Every second of eternal light 

Piercing through this sorrowful night 

Will make the sad heart 

The cold heart 

To love again 

Last night I dreamed of 

Henry Thomas and the blues
