Deacon Blue - Last Night I Dreamed Of Henry Thomas lyrics

rate me

Lily love that's a

Beautiful name

Your precious gifts are not the same

Since they faded away

The song so distant

But it still rings true your

Beautiful hands were rudely used

To make things pay

Every minute of every day

You don't get angry 'bout what's taken away

Is only real life

Every second of eternal light

Piercing through this sorrowful night

Will bring the sad heart

The cold heart

To love again

Last night I dreamed of

Henry Thomas in the

Delta light his rusty pipes

They drifted away

Standing in some

Dusty patch

It felt so close that I could almost catch

His breath on me

Every minute of every day

You don't get angry 'bout what's been taken away

Is only real life

Every second of eternal light

Piercing through this sorrowful night

Will make the sad heart

The cold heart

To love again

Every minute of every day

You don't get angry 'bout what's been taken away

Is only real life

Every second of eternal light

Piercing through this sorrowful night

Will make the sad heart

The cold heart

To love again

Last night I dreamed of

Henry Thomas and the blues
