Before lyrics

Artist  : Nanci Griffith 
Song : Before



 Send "Before" Ringtone to your Cell 

 

I dreamed of Louisiana

And a night in Lafayette

We had breakfast with Susanna

We were young and wild and left



(chorus)

What’s different here than in that
dream

and in reality

Is we weren’t afraid to fail in love

and we all believed in the dream

Before…Before



I dreamed of Manhattan

In a time before this war

It was snowing down on Bleecker Street

It was before you were a star



(chorus)



Now everything is twilight

It’s a time too dark to see

It’s fear of being what we were

And pondering the dream



Then I dreamed of Texas

And the Gulf Coast shores

I dreamed of who we used to be

And the hope we had before



(chorus)
