Lyrics Hamilton Leithauser - A Times

i had a dream that you were mine
i’ve had that dream a thousand times
a thousand times, a thousand times
i’ve had that dream a thousand times

i left my room, on the west side
i walked from noon, until the night
i changed my crowd, i ditched my tie
i watched the sparks, fly off the fire

i found your house, i didn’t even try
they’d closed the shutters , they’d pulled the blinds
my eyes were red, the streets were bright
those ancient years, were black and white

the 10th of novemeber, the years almost over
if i had your number, i’d call you tomorrow
if my eyes were open, i’d be kicking the doors in
but all that i have is this old dream i’ve always had

a thousand times, a thousand times
i’ve had that dream a thousand times
a thousand times, a thousand times
i’ve had that dream a thousand times

i left my room, on the west side
i walked from noon, until the night
i changed my crowd, i ditched my tie
i watched the sparks, fly off the fire

i found your old house, i didn’t even try
they’d closed the shutters, they’d pulled the blinds
my eyes were red, the streets were bright
those ancient years, were black and white

“i’ve had that dream a thousand times— hamilton leithauser + rostam

i had a dream that you were mine
i’ve had that dream a thousand times

but i don’t answer questions, i just keep on guessing
my eyes are still open, the curtains are closing
and all that i have is this old dream i must have had.

a thousand times, a thousand times
i’ve had that dream a thousand times
a thousand times, a thousand times
i’ve had that dream a thousand times

a thousand times, a thousand times
i’ve had that dream a thousand times
a thousand times, a thousand times
i’ve had that dream a thousand times
