Summer Blanket – Gossamer lyrics

i dreamt i had a drug addiction too
and in that dream I couldn't comfort you
I guess it was a nightmare
but someone told me nightmares
are dreams that won't ever come true

i lost my sense of balance once
and hugged the floor to keep me up
the doctor said I'm tired
my wife called me a liar
she didn't let me rest and now she's gone.

clouds like gossamer split open in the night
geese fly high in their v shapes to alight
watch your mouth, I am only describing the scene
hold your tongue, girl, and meet me in my dreams

a velveteen baby with a name
stitched into the back of its brain
I found it on the river
and its name sent such a shiver
that to this day I am stuck shivering
