Artist/Band: Nanci Griffith
Lyrics for Song: Before
Lyrics for Album: Hearts In Mind [2002]



I dreamed of Louisiana

And a night in Lafayette

We had breakfast with Susanna

We were young and wild and left



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 Bleeker Street

It was before you were a star



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



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



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
