John Black - Six Lovers Deep Lyrics
Last night, I had a beautiful dreamThat I bought our old building on 41st StreetAnd I took over the upkeep of the place where we used to sleep.I knew I needed some assistance, so I placed the call.Some friends that I could count on helped me tear down the walls,Then, brick by brick, we watched that building fall.Then I toiled and I slaved for months at a time,Structured life from it's foundation, crafted many a rhyme,And I built you a home of beauty from the grime.Not a day goes by I don't wishThat this whole thing was just a dream,That I'd wake up in the morningAnd you'd be lying next to me.From the floors, to the ceilings, down to every beam,I designed it all to follow a particular theme,And filled every open space with all your favorite things.I made a room for you to dance when you felt the need,Put a hammock in the yard out beneath the trees,Every level of the house held another story to me.Not a day goes by I don't wishThat this whole thing was just a dream,That I'd wake up in the morningAnd you'd be lying next to me.But as the months pass by, I vanquishIn the soul of your memory.And now I'm three years down,And six lovers deep.
