rachel kiel - ava gardner lyrics
[verse]
i dreamed another body
dreamed you as someone who’d understand me
and sometimes it was lonely
being small and so relentless
so hopeful for the mystery
holding rocks under my pillow
[verse]
i dreamed another body
i was angry
i didn’t know where time would take me
maybe i would have a baby
maybe you, i thought, might leave me
[chorus]
all the times i lowered my defenses
every time i stood beside another body
casting you, i chose you for the drama
the one who’d fall in love with ava gardner
[verse]
i dreamed a russian novel
a marriage to sinatra
having fights that’d last forever
singing songs about each other
’til the whole thing sours
in the wee, small hours
[verse]
and then i dreamed of never leaving
i never did like starting over
so when the show is done
and the lights come up
i’ll meet you on the lawn
with my old age makeup on
[chorus]
i lowered my defenses
stood beside another body
casting you, i chose you for the drama
the one who falls in love with ava gardner
[verse]
don’t be sorry that you dreamed of losing
’cause losing’s gonna meet you in the morning
you can let it in the front door
or it’s comin’ through the window
[verse]
humility surrender
i’m nothing like i dreamed of
or maybe just a little
if i’m really being honest
[pre+chorus]
some things don’t fade
some wishes never leave you
[chorus/outro]
i made myself defenseless
i dreamed another body
i gave myself to beauty
i’m chose for the drama
in love with ava gardner
in love with ava gardner
in love with ava gardner
in love with ava gardner
