Lyrics for You Made Me Forget My Dreams

You made me forget my dreams When I woke up to you sleeping We had peace for a night at least But the trouble starts today This morning you'll say "I'll see you sometime, maybe" and I Fall back to uneasy sleep You made me forget my dreams I was building a space rocket With the boy who played bass guitar With the boy who's wearing flares He didn't care He lit the fuse and ran for a mile The space rocket went up in style I'll lend you two hundred quid For a flight across the ocean Maybe things will look better there Because they couldn't seem much worse Than tears and a curse For men with guns, maturing in age Will always pay a shitty wage They'll always pay a shitty wage You made me forget my dreams When I woke up to you sleeping There was blood on the sheets again And the view outside the window Of gardens in bloom Obscured by all the trouble we had I think I better make a move, I think I better make a move I think I better make a move, I think I better make a move
