An Occasional Dream

[Verse 1] I recall how we lived On the corner of a bed, and And we'd speak of a Swedish room Of hessian and wood [Verse 2] And we'd talk with our eyes Of the sweetness in our lives And tomorrows of rich surprise Some things we could do [Chorus] In our madness We burnt one hundred days Time takes time to pass And I still hold some ashes To me An occasional dream [Verse 3] And we'd sleep, oh-so close But not really close our eyes Between the sheets of summer, bathed in blue Gently weeping nights [Verse 4] It was long, long ago; long ago (long ago) And I still can't touch your name For the days of fate were strong for you Danced you far from me [Chorus] In my madness I see your face in mine I keep a photograph It burns my wall with time Time An occasional dream Of mine An occasional dream Of mine An occasional dream (Dream!) Of mine!
