[Lyrics]
i won’t dream tonight
i won’t dream tonight
when i wake up i am running
laces coming undone
i can stay but i’m a sleeper
and i’m bad in the sun
stage is empty at the station
all the lights down so low
and the people there are waiting
so i walk up alone
i try to sing, i get the words all wrong
cause its somebody else’s song
and you’re strong but i can’t get along
without my best friend, without my best friend
i won’t dream tonight
