Neil Halstead - Dreamed I Saw Soldiers

Climbed out the window and stared at the stars
But the moment I wanted had already passed
Lost in the silence blessed by the night
Dreamed I saw soldiers they were all dressed in white
All dressed in white
Well the summer came late so I slept here for days
`Til winter was over and my heart could be saved
I walked for a lifetime and I climbed in a hole
She had breasts on the outside she had breath in her soul
Death in her soul
Placed in a bottle and flung out to sea
I was stung by the thought that the ship was now me
Lost in the silence blessed by the night
I dreamed I saw soldiers they were all dressed in white
All dressed in white
A fellow by nature I fell for a way
That would shake me all over and spin me around
Twisted my feelings `til I nearly drowned
It was love at first sight the first time around
Time around
We stared at the walls `til we lost all the dawn
Waiting for words I said I`ve been cursed by your love
Crying for shame so what has become of our love
Of our love
Now all the neighbors have stolen my stash
I write poems about death I ain`t finished one yet
Lost in the silence blessed by the night
I dreamed I saw soldiers they were all dressed in white
All dressed in white
Climbed out the window and stared at the stars
But the moment I wanted had already passed
Lost in the silence blessed by the night
Dreamed I saw soldiers they were all dressed in white
All dressed in white
Well the summer came late so I slept here for days
`Til winter was over and my heart could be saved
I walked for a lifetime and I climbed in a hole
She had breasts on the outside she had breath in her soul
Death in her soul
Placed in a bottle and flung out to sea
I was stung by the thought that the ship was now me
Lost in the silence blessed by the night
I dreamed I saw soldiers they were all dressed in white
All dressed in white
A fellow by nature I fell for a way
That would shake me all over and spin me around
Twisted my feelings `til I nearly drowned
It was love at first sight the first time around
Time around
We stared at the walls `til we lost all the dawn
Waiting for words I said I`ve been cursed by your love
Crying for shame so what has become of our love
Of our love
Now all the neighbors have stolen my stash
I write poems about death I ain`t finished one yet
Lost in the silence blessed by the night
I dreamed I saw soldiers they were all dressed in white
All dressed in white
