  • Dream come true
    Bought me a house at the end of a cul-de-sac
    Four bedrooms
    But I only use one
    Dream come true
    Got me a gig on my best friend's wedding day
    Same old news
    She knew I couldn't come

    A million girls would love to wear your shoes
    You can't complain if it's the kind of life you choose

    But nobody loves you for you
    Nobody calls you if you lose your shine
    Nobody tells you everything you're gonna lose
    Trying to make the dream come true

    Dream come true
    Got me fallin' for the boys in the bars downtown
    Front page news
    When it didn't work out
    Yeah, dream come true
    Got me sittin' on the couch, cryin' in the dark
    Every plaque on the wall is a broken heart
    Damn, look at me now

    Nobody loves you for you
    Nobody calls you if you lose your shine
    Nobody tells you everything you're gonna lose
    Trying to make the dream come true

    My mama's sick
    Don't see her that much when I'm on the road
    And it's gettin' too hard to come to my shows
    Like she used to
    She says I can quit
    But then all of her prayers would be in vain
    She worked my whole damn life to make
    This dream come true Writer/s: Carly Pearce, Emily Shackelton, Lauren Lee Hungate, Tofer Brown
