Before Lyrics

Artist: Nanci Griffith
Album: Hearts in Mind

I dreamed of Louisiana
And a night in Lafayette
We had breakfast with Susanna
We were young and wild and left

(chorus)
What€™s different here than in that dream
and in reality
Is we weren€™t afraid to fail in love
and we all believed in the dream
Before€Before

I dreamed of Manhattan
In a time before this war
It was snowing down on Bleecker Street
It was before you were a star

(chorus)

Now everything is twilight
It€™s a time too dark to see
It€™s fear of being what we were
And pondering the dream

Then I dreamed of Texas
And the Gulf Coast shores
I dreamed of who we used to be
And the hope we had before

(chorus)
