Alternative 6 minutes shorter mix of the album version, which was released as a single ONLY in Germany and Czech Republic in February/March 1996. It was significantly altered, adding a radio-friendly drum track to the mix and editing out most of the Galás' interlude.
It was written by group members...
[Verse 1: Andy Bell]
Past five in the morning
Feeling worse for the weather it seems
But what a feeling
What an endless night this has been
[Pre-Chorus 1: Andy Bell]
And we can't stay here
'Cause we won't be forever young
We'll have to go down
'Fore innocence is lost
[Chorus 1: Andy Bell]
And I dream you're with me
You hold me sweetly
And rock me gently to sleep
In your arms
Whoa, whoa
[Verse 2: Andy Bell]
I've been getting used to all the crying
And the games that you play
And if I carry on I'm gonna end up with a
Hole in my head, oooh
[Pre-Chorus 2: Andy Bell]
And there's more to life
Than thrills and spills and dollar bills
We'll have to come through
Some way some how
[Chorus 2: Andy Bell & The London Community Gospel Choir]
And I dream I'm with you
You hold me sweetly
And rock me gently to sleep
In your arms
[Chorus 1: Andy Bell & The London Community Gospel Choir]
I dream you're with me
You hold me sweetly
And rock me gently to sleep
In your arms
Whoa, whoa
[Interlude]
[Outro: Andy Bell & The London Community Gospel Choir]
And I dream you're with me
You hold me sweetly
And rock me gently to sleep
In your arms
Oooh
Whoa, whoa
