Lindsey Cardinale - Nothin' Like A Dream lyrics

rate me

Lonnie Ratliff / Tara Lyn Mohr

It was Southern Louisiana 1999

Two friends reachin' for the brass ring, planning out their lives

You said you'd have white picket fences, lead the Cinderella life

I've heard that he's rock solid and you've made the perfect wife

(MOD)

I kept a picture of the Ryman on an old postcard

Marie you always shared my dream, It didn't seem that far

But now it's one more song and penny tossed into the wishing well

I pay my dues, keep on singing and believing in myself

(Chorus)

But it ain't nothin' like we talked about Marie

Nothin' like you and I thought that it would be

It seems like every step you take there's a piper to be paid

And when the foot lights from the stage blind your view

You can't always see their face

But you give your heart and soul on faith

When they give it back to you

There's nothin' like a dream coming true

(Bridge)

Sometimes I can't help but envy you Marie

And knowing you the way I do I bet that's a two way street

When the truth is neither one of us would ever trade their place

Since Louisiana 99 we've both come a ways

(Repeat Chorus) Tag: There's nothin' like a dream coming true
