In My Dreams - The Hotknives

A man came to me in my sleep, and told me I was dead

I heard a shout, a girl cried out, and woke me in my bed

And then I woke and she’s not there

It isn’t right, it isn’t fair

No-one's hurt and no-one died

No-one's poor or so it seemed

You and I could be intimately dangerous

I’ll be with you, in my dreams

Captured by a photograph, a moment lost in time

Guilty of this thing I’ve done, and punished for my crime

And when the jailor turns the key

It isn’t right, it wasn’t me

Cause no-one's hurt and no-one died

And no-one's poor or so it seemed

But you and I could be intimately dangerous

I’ll be with you, in my dreams

They take back cool their bombs and guns, and put them all away

One afternoon of silence, just to let the children play

And when the ceasefire turns to war

Another cause worth fighting for

Cause no-one's hurt and no-one died

And no-one's poor or so it seemed

But you and I could be intimately dangerous

I’ll be with you, in my dreams

No-one's hurt and no-one died

No-one's poor or so it seemed

You and I could be intimately dangerous

I’ll be with you, in my dreams
