  • Well, the morning came like a freight train
    Bearing down on me from a thousand miles of rail
    Well it came and gone
    And kept rolling on
    Laying up all night with my tear-stained sheet as my veil

    I don't want to see you again
    I don't want to feel your breath
    As you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept
    And I don't want the keys to our door; I don't live there anymore
    And I'll do my best just to forget the dreams we've dreamt

    Well, the morning came with the pouring rain
    And I felt just as empty as a pail
    With the evidence and your crime confessed
    Don't seem right that it's me that spent a night in jail

    I don't want to see you again
    I don't want to feel your breath
    As you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept
    And I don't want the keys to our door 'cause I don't live there anymore
    And I'll do my best just to forget the dreams I've dreamt

    If you feel a chill in the air
    It's my spirit hanging somewhere
    If you ever get scared
    Look on the Brightside
    You got a new life

    Now the evening's come and I'm all alone
    And I can't tell if silence is my former friend
    Well I'm holding on but I ain't too strong
    I gotta get some rest before that train come back 'round the bend

    I don't want to see you again
    I don't want to feel your breath
    As you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept
    And I don't want the keys to our door
    I don't live there anymore
    And I'll do my best just to forget the dreams we've dreamt
    Dreams we've dreamt. Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
