Double Shift      (Music - Mike Iannicello, Words - Ed McGee)

You were like a dream,
All that magic and bliss
And promise and please, please, please
Let me not wake from this.
 
Every morning the dream slips away
And I think it’s gonna be another lonely day,
But by the time I’m up and walking down the hall,
I don’t remember what I can’t recall. 

And you were like a dream,
All that wonder and doubt
And mornings of rain, rain, rain that washed
All the happiness out. 

And you were like a dream,
Else I’d not have moved on,
With such ease and relief, relief, relief,
And forgotten you’re gone. 

Every morning the dream slips away
And I think it’s gonna be another lonely day,
And I just can’t believe it, it all seemed so real,
How long’s it gonna take for a hole like this to heal?
But by the time I’m up and walking down the hall
I can’t remember any dream,
And there’s nothing left to miss at all,
But every other day, I glimpse a trace of the dream
And it’s you. 

And you were like a dream,
Perhaps to many men,
But I’d happily dream, dream, dream you
To forget you again.
