Dreamin - Escape Lyrics by Lou Reed

Dreamin - Escape Lyrics

    If i close my eyes i see your face
    And i'm not without you
    If i try hard and concentrate
    I can still hear you speak
    I picture myself in your room by the chair
    You're smoking a cigarette
    If i close my eyes i can see your face
    You're saying, "i missed you"

    Dreamin', i'm always dreamin'

    If i close my eyes i can smell your perfume
    You look and say, "hi baby"
    If i close my eyes pictures from china
    Still hang from the wall
    I hear the dog bark i turn and say
    "what were you saying?"
    I picture you in the red chair
    Inside the pale room

    Dreamin', i'm always dreamin'

    You sat in your chair with a tube in your arm
    You were so skinny
    You were still making jokes
    I don't know what drugs they had you on
    You said, "i guess this is not the time
    For long term investments"
    You were always laughing
    But you never laughing at me

    They say in the end the pain was so bad
    That you were screaming
    Now you were no saint but you deserved
    Better than that
    From the corner i watched them removing things
    From your apartment
    But i can picture you red chair and pale room
    Inside my head

    If i close my eyes i see your face
    And i'm not without you
    If i try hard and concentrate i can hear your voice saying
    "who better than you"
    If i close my eyes i can't believe that
    I'm here without you
    Inside your pale room your empty red chair
    And my head

    Dreamin', i'm always dreamin'
    Dreamin', i'm always dreamin'
    Dreamin', i'm always dreamin'
