I Met A Friend In My Dreams

from First Impressions by Erin Snape

/

lyrics

Your pupils are blue
And your irises green
Your hair might be ginger, or chestnut, or golden, or anything in between
You sing like the devil
And you dance like a god
We could be in heaven, or hell, pick a subset and do what you want

And I think there's a photo somewhere
Where you're hugging a redwood and your arms don't reach halfway round the sides
I'd quite like to go there
Where there's photos and redwoods and time

You said I used to know you
And it's stored like a slideshow in my mind
A kid in a hoodie, and dance shoes and pigtails, with the same infectious smile
And you're just as amazing
So I don't care who's around
We'll be ten minutes late, to a class in my dreams that I've found

They say that you can't make up faces when you sleep
So you have to be real and those eyes are quite something
So why waste your time singing songs back to me
When you kinda make me feel like I'm everything and nothing

But I'd buy you a redwood for your birthday if you'll stick around
What's your name and your birthday, here's ten feet of ground

So show me your photos
And sing me a song
It doesn't have to be good, just to drag all the time with you along
'Cause when you're gone I'll be lonely
And it won't have been enough
'Cause you're amazing, and I'm dreaming, and when you leave then I'll have to wake up
