Nemesis 0 Posted April 25, 2004 Was this written in the 70's? For it sounds like a song of the Vietnam era. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RikerChick 5 Posted April 25, 2004 I think this is it. Click for Spoiler: ROGER HODGSON - "Had A Dream (Sleeping With The Enemy)" Had a dream I was born To be naked in the eye of the storm And now it's standing right in front of me What's it going to do to me, who knows, Had a dream it was time To be taken to the front of the line Well that is not a place you wanna be Sleeping with the enemy, you know I don't care what the future brings Give a damn about anything I'd be fine if they'd only leave me alone. But it's time - gotta take a stance 'Cause I won't get a second chance And I know now I have to make it alone Had a dream it was war And they couldn't tell me what it was for But it was something they could lie about Something we could die about, you know Anytime, anyplace When you look that man in the face Well it is not a face you wanna see Sleeping with the enemy, you know Mary, can you hear me Can you tell me what it's all supposed to mean Holding out a photograph of all that I have seen I wish I could hold you I wish I could hold you Had a dream it was time To be a witness at the scene of the crime Well, That is something you can analyse Something you can criticise, who knows So we wait, hesitate And we're making such a mistake Oh whatever can the matter be Sleeping with the enemy, you know I don't care what the future brings Give a damn about anything I'd be fine if they'd only leave me alone But it's time, gotta take a stance 'Cause I won't get a second chance And I know now I have to make it alone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
