Castle and Cathedral Lyrics
There's a dream I have,
it comes back when all the days turn into one.
I'm in a coat and hat,
and I'm standing on the coast of England.
With a castle and cathedral on the sand,
I reached down to touch the water with my hand.
Then you turn and say to me,
"You've been talking in your sleep,
What did you see? What does it mean?"
I was a photograph
of our daytrip from the window of a train.
The one we cut in half.
I kept mine and made a bookmark on a page.
It fell out today as I was getting packed.
Have I left you here more times than I've come back?
Like that snowfall out of reach,
we kept our details underneath,
once made of stone, we went for broke.
I didn't know.
Are you a dreamer?
it comes back when all the days turn into one.
I'm in a coat and hat,
and I'm standing on the coast of England.
With a castle and cathedral on the sand,
I reached down to touch the water with my hand.
Then you turn and say to me,
"You've been talking in your sleep,
What did you see? What does it mean?"
of our daytrip from the window of a train.
The one we cut in half.
I kept mine and made a bookmark on a page.
It fell out today as I was getting packed.
Have I left you here more times than I've come back?
Like that snowfall out of reach,
we kept our details underneath,
once made of stone, we went for broke.
I didn't know.
