My Morning Jacket - Dondante

"In a dream I saw you walkin'
Like a kid alive and talking
That was you

In the classroom you were teachin'
On the streets you were policing
That was you

To the one I now know most
I will tell them of your ghost
Like a thing that never, ever was

And all that ever mattered
Will some day turn back to batter
Like a joke

Behind thin walls you hid your feelings
Takes four legs to make a ceilin' like a thing
In a dream I saw you walkin'
With your friends alive and talking
That was you

Well I saw it in your movement
And even though you never knew it
Well, I knew just how sweet it could be
If you'd never left these streets

You had me worried
So worried
That this would last
But now I'm learning
Learning that this will pass...
