Emmylou Harris In My Dreams lyrics

When the sun goes down on the other side of town tonight
And the world is asleep dreamin' in the deep moonlight
I'll slip away in the shadows out of your life

You don't want' me anymore so I'll close the door when I leave
'Cause, my bags are packed and I'll give you back your keys
You keep your ring and I'll keep your memory

But in my dreams at night, oh oh everything will work out right
'Cause I'll still hold you tight in my dreams

Well, it's hard to take when love breaks down and dies
But it's better to quit than to sit each night and cry
I'd rather know the truth than to live through a life of lies

But in my dreams at night, oh oh everything will work out right

'Cause I'll still hold you tight in my dreams

Maybe it's for the best to give this love of ours a rest
But I'll come runnin' back if you want me

Well, bye bye baby it seems that we're all through
You sure know how make this little girl blue
When you say you don't want the things I can do for you

But in my dreams at night, oh oh everything will work out right
'Cause I'll still hold you tight in my dreams
In my dreams at night, oh oh everything will work out right
'Cause I'll still hold you tight in my dreams
