I wrote this song years ago late at night somewhere on the Goldhawk Road

I was never sure how or why

Before the war and the tidal wave engulfed us all it's true how the world has changed

And I was learning how to change with you



We saw the green fields

Turn into stone

Such lonely homes

All in a badman's dream

He ain't asleep

It's just a dream



In the darkest hour the song had gone it passed among the people I hardly knew

And I was losing it all the time

But she stayed with me and found me out and above all things I've learnt

It's that honesty that secures the bond in the heart



We saw the green fields

Turn into stone

Such lonely homes

All in a badman's dream

He ain't asleep

It's just a dream
