In My Dreams I Am Never Old

from I Used to Dream by Bill White

/

lyrics

The rain fell as it used to fall When I ran through the red square.
I entered a house where I used to live And spied a rain-soaked student there.
She disappeared into a room, I started down the stairs,
My life alive with tales untold. In my dreams, I am never old

Whose face is at the window Whose shadow on the door
Who whispers to me nightly This house is yours no more
The bookcases are empty All that was bought is sold
Awakening to ashes In my dreams I am never old

Though nails would confine me Within this dreadful place
I shall never lose my ties With the human race
The story is not over Until all the tales are told
Im racing with the children In my dreams I am never old
