Verse 1
AmC
I had a dream about a burning house
GF
You were stuck inside, I couldn’t get you out
AmC
I laid beside you and pulled you close
GF
And the two of us went up in smoke
Chorus
AmC
Love isn’t all that it seems, I did you wrong
GF
I’ll stay here with you until this dream is gone
AmC
I’ve been sleepwalking, been wandering all night
GF
Trying to take what’s lost and broke and make it right
AmC
I’ve been sleepwalking too close to the fire
GF
But it’s the only place that I can hold you tight
AmCGF
In this burning house
Verse 2
AmC
I see you at a party and you look the same
GF
I could take you back but people don’t ever change
AmC
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
GF
And forget about the stupid little things
