Lou Reed - Dreamin' (Escape) Lyrics
If I close my eyes I see your faceAnd I'm not without youIf I try hard and concentrateI can still hear you speakI picture myself in your room by the chairYou're smoking a cigaretteIf I close my eyes I can see your faceYou're saying, "I missed you"Dreamin', I'm always dreamin'If I close my eyes I can smell your perfumeYou look and say, "Hi baby"If I close my eyes pictures from chinaStill hang from the wallI hear the dog bark I turn and say"What were you saying? "I picture you in the red chairInside the pale roomDreamin', I'm always dreamin'You sat in your chair with a tube in your armYou were so skinnyYou were still making jokesI don't know what drugs they had you onYou said, "I guess this is not the timeFor long term investments"You were always laughingBut you never laughing at meThey say in the end the pain was so badThat you were screamingNow you were no saint but you deservedBetter than thatFrom the corner I watched them removing thingsFrom your apartmentBut I can picture you red chair and pale roomInside my headIf I close my eyes I see your faceAnd I'm not without youIf I try hard and concentrate I can hear your voice saying"Who better than you"If I close my eyes I can't believe thatI'm here without youInside your pale room your empty red chairAnd my headDreamin', I'm always dreamin'Dreamin', I'm always dreamin'Dreamin', I'm always dreamin'
