Those Poor Bastards
Lonely Dreams
Meet me in the orchard by the poison apple tree
There's something I must show you won’t you come along with me
To that place behind the shadows a place everybody goes
Where the spirit is released from all its momentary woes
Lonely dreams each night
These are my lonely dreams
Some people say there's nothing worse than crying all alone
For me it is the only way of life I've ever known
Take me to a funeral in nineteen twenty-five
That’s about the only place I think I'd feel alive
Lonely dreams each night
These are my lonely dreams
Angels they are choking in the doom infected sky
Your presence is too painful so its truth I will deny
In time the fondest memory will blur and start to fade
It's over now my debt to you has finally been paid
Lonely dreams each night
These are my lonely dreams
