1
I can recall the sound of the wind
2
As it blew through the trees and the trees would bend
3
I can recall the smell of the rain
4
On a hot summer night
5
Coming through the screen
6
I'd crawl in your bed when the lightning flashed
7
And I'd still be there when the storm had passed
8
Dead to the world, to the morning cast
9
Its light all around your room
10
We lived on a street where the tall elm shade
11
Was as green as the grass and as cool as a blade
12
That you held in your teeth as we lay on our backs
13
Staring up at the blue and the blue stared back
14
I used to believe we were just like those trees
15
We'd grown just as tall and as proud as we pleased
16
With our feet on the ground and our arms in the breeze
17
Under a sheltering sky
18
Twirl me about, and twirl me around
19
Let me grow dizzy and fall to the ground
20
And when I look up at you looking down,
21
Say it was only a dream
22
A big truck was parked in the drive one day
23
They wrapped us in paper and moved us away
24
Your room was no longer next door to mine
25
And this kid sister thing was old by that time
26
But oh how our dreams went bump in the night
27
And the voices downstairs getting into a fight
28
And the next day a silence you could cut with a knife
29
And feel like a blade at your throat
30
Twirl me about and twirl me around
31
Let me grow dizzy and fall to the ground
32
When I look up at you looking down
33
Say it as only a dream
34
The day you left home you got an early start
35
I watched your car back out in the dark
36
I opened the door to your room down the hall
37
I turned on the light
38
And all that I saw
39
Was a bed and a desk and couple of tacks
40
No sign of someone who expects to be back
41
It must have been one hell of a suitcase you packed
42
Twirl me about, twirl me around
43
Let me grow dizzy and fall to the ground
44
When I look up at you looking down
45
Say it was only a dream
