tracy chapman - for a dream lyrics

Loading...

i picture us together
framed in gold leaf
on the mantle with the others
one big happy family
but that snapshot can’t be found
and i don’t trust my memory

but it’s alright it’s alright
for a dream

i imagine we are gathered
but this time not dressed in black
there’s laughing and smiling
not stabbing in the back
but it’s too good to be true
and too bad i still recall the screams

[chorus]

i keep half the picture
mostly in my mind
mama dressed in white
ripped when she held your hand
showing no signs of age
just slightly frayed along the seam

[chorus]

it’s alright
all that i can claim
it’s alright
and it will have to do
it’s alright
better than the pain
it’s alright
better than the truth
it’s alright
alright for a dream
it’s alright
better than fate and the great scheme
it’s alright
it’s alright

for christmas and for new year
i wish and i resolve
but i’m disappointed by myself
jesus and santa claus
i want to believe
she’s been saved
and he’s be redeemed

and it’s alright it’s alright
for a dream
