Nearly Beloved Lyrics - Rebel, Sweetheart - The Wallflowers

Last night I dreamt one thousand lies 

I could see the dawn through a different set of eyes 

There in my slumber passing time 

Long live the world resting on its side 

I walked the orchard with you 

Your hand in mine 

In the evergreens drinking wine 

I saw the snow fall in black and white 

From the auburn sky 

Last night I lived more than one thousand lives 

Not one of them survived 

Up through the earth at dawn I came 

I crossed the kingdom through venom pouring rain 

When the vacuum of my own brigade 

Resurrected to make you mine again

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Orpheus looked back once 

She sailed the underworld 

No second chances will be earned 

I have returned as a phantom now 

To walk the bow and stern 

Last night I lived more than one thousand lives 

Not one of them survived 

If we could do better I know that we would 

Maybe admit it now, we're not that good 

We keep the needle between zero and one 

You play your fiddle, baby, I'll play dumb 

Into the pastures of our minds 

Goes my nearly beloved and I 

Blazing two parallel white lines 

Through this broken heart spilt open wide 

Photos 

Time may be on my side 

But it's mostly far behind 

I was the apple of your eye 

Now I'm the boy spinning on a wheel there 

Stuck with knives 

Last night I lived more than one thousand lives 

Not one of them survived
