I won’t say that I didn’t have some dreams[Not One of Those Dreams]

XXXXX

 

 

 

 

I did a somewhat different take of this song the first time around. This version may take up-front intimacy to a slightly unnerving extreme — and I manage to perform an almost Sinatraesque dismemberment of the title line when I sing it but I sort of like this, anyway.

Not One of Those Dreams

If I had time to count the lies
or that hours that you stole
but it ain’t like me to wonder why
all the same there’s some things one needn’t be told

I can see it in your smile
it’s there behind all your words
something dancing behind your eyes
I can tell that you think it’s
me that’s gonna get burned

It ain’t like you’re the only one
that ever threw away love
I’ve sinned your sins and some again
it’s all the same, it’s all been done

I can see it in your smile…

I’m not saying that I’m sorry
I won’t say I didn’t love you
I won’t say that I didn’t have some dreams
but not once did I dream they’d ever come true

I can see it in your smile
it’s there behind all your words
something dancing behind your eys
I can tell that you think it’s
gonna be me that’s gonna get burned

(C)1981, TK Major
