Lyrics The Magnetic Fields

The Magnetic Fields

I'll Dream Alone

Long

and lonely nights

I've waited for you

to put things to rights

leaving you to do

your thing without

disturbance from me

Somehow I doubt

you'll ever be

back

I'll keep your things

If you ever need them

the phone still rings

And now that you're free

of me at last

your time is your own

Go have a blast

and

I'll dream alone without you

I'll dream alone if I must

because I guess our little castle

in the sky just turned to dust

So I'll dream alone that's showbiz

and I'll be trying not to dream

of what once was and might have been

if only I'd known

I'll dream alone
