"Bad Dream" lyrics

"Bad Dream"

Baby, wait
Do you really think it's too late?
You know I hate when you hesitate
So if you've got something to say
Say it right
I thought you said you knew how to fight
And you promised that you'd stay here tonight
Somehow you always get me back on your side
No, no, no
If you're not gonna hold me then go
And you're not gonna put out, I know
But at least don't make me feel so alone
'Cause I won't forget
Your apathy and your cigarettes
Don't be selfish now you get what you get
You take the sweetest thing and crush it to death
It's a bad, bad dream

I love you most when you're sleeping
'Cause when you wake up, it all falls apart
I want you most when you're leaving
You look so good, you break my heart
But you've heard it all before
Haven't you, baby?

Give it up
Honey, you don't know a thing about love
You're a sucker for the girls and the drugs
And I'm sorry but enough is enough
You can't run
Don't be stupid now the damage is done
Is it worth it now that you've had your fun?
And when you walk out the door is someone
Waiting for you right now?
Your gentleness is freaking me out
I thought I saw you turning around
But you get off on turning me down
But you're so sweet
I can't help but fall at your feet
So heartbroken it made my nose bleed
I went out and cried in the street

(It's a bad, bad dream)

I love you most when you're sleeping
'Cause when you wake up, it all falls apart
I want you most when you're leaving
You look so good, you break my heart
But you've heard it all before
Haven't you, baby?
