LyricsListenReleaseAvailable OnGigsGuitar Tabs
For a love you dream
A dreamer still
For you love a dream
A dreamer still
For you dream
A love too bad to meet
Where your song is all
The wait is still
And your song is of
Your rage will steal
I relax and hold your way to see
It's the falling dark beside the sea
It's a dream along the water scene
It's the light of that you're never seen
Pain, pain, pain
A dreamer still
For you love a dream
A dreamer still
For you dream
A love too bad to meet
Where your song is all
The wait is still
And your song is of
Your rage will steal
I relax and hold your way to see
It's the falling dark beside the sea
It's a dream along the water scene
It's the light of that you're never seen
Pain, pain, pain

Song Structure:
Throughout the song Larry plays a number of riffs, as tabbed above. Generally he plays Riff 1 followed by one of the other riffs.
The song never deviates from a chord of C, but occasionally you might want to play it with a bass note of G, especially when it first goes quiet.
Lyrics:
For a love you dream
A dreamer still
For you love a dream
A dreamer still
For you dream
A love too bad to me
Where your song is all
The waiter still
And your song is of
Your rage will still
I relax and hold your way to see
It's the falling dark beside the sea
It's a dream along the water scene
It's the light of that you're ever share
