Meet me in my dream (live 1992)

It's very nice to be here in Liverpool
To do this special concert

As you know I wasn't born to far away
It makes it extra special really for me
So it's an intimate little evening
This evening
It's me and Martin and yourselves
And hopefully we're gonna do a few songs
One or two from the past
Maybe to your like
Maybe you'll remember, maybe you'll not

Remember, when we were back in school
Two young kids with wild ideas
Years gone by, we sweat and saved
For a cupboard with a view

Now too old for work, they say
What's the point in biding time
Living out our yesterday
When wild ideas could all come true?

We could settle into being old
But all that glitters could be gold
So meet me in my dream
I won't fall asleep without you, so

Meet me in my dream
Underneath the Vegas lights

Look around our shabby room
Paper peeling curtains frayed
Faded photos on the wall, like
Us, they've all seen better days

We drew our savings from the bank for
Roulette wheels and reckless nights
Sinatra's records on our minds
Fruit machines and neon lights

We made our peace, we cut our ties
We sold our house, we said goodbye

So meet me in my dream
I won't fall asleep without you, so

Meet me in my dream
Underneath the Vegas lights

We threw away our everything
And blew it on a final fling

So meet me in my dream
I won't fall asleep without you, so

Meet me in my dream
It's lonely there without you
Remember way back then in school
All the things we said we'd do

So meet me in my dream
Underneath the Vegas lights

Come on
Meet me in my dream
Come on
Meet me in my dream
Meet me in my dream
Underneath the Vegas lights
