BAT FOR LASHES
"Joe's Dream"
(Natasha Khan)

There's a tear in my lover's eyes
He's at my window, it's a gloomy night
Said he dreamt of God's search light
It remembered his name
Lifts his hand gently to my face
Through the promise of wedding lace
And I feel his dark embrace
As my baby, he cries

[Chorus:]
I'm falling in love
(Don't say goodbye)
I'm falling like a star from above
(Don't say goodbye)
And I finally found my pot of gold
(Don't say goodbye)
And now I can see just what my heart can hold
But what does it mean?
The bad things that I've seen

He saw angels at his bedroom door
And a body on a checkered floor
There was lightning in his black leather
And it struck out his name
No more tears, baby, please don't cry
I tried to tell him everything is fine
Cross my heart and hope to die
I won't say goodbye

[Chorus:]
'Cause I'm falling in love
(Don't say goodbye)
I'm falling like a star from above
(Don't say goodbye)
And I finally found my pot of gold
(Don't say goodbye)
And now I can see just what my heart can hold
But what does it mean?
The bad things that I've seen

[Outro:]
Oh, what does it mean?
The bad things that I've seen
What does it mean?
The bad things that I've seen
