Pink Floyd - The Gunners Dream lyrics

Floating down through the clouds<br>Memories come rushing up to meet me now.<br>In the space between the heavens<br>And in the corner of some foreign field<br>I had a dream.<br>I had a dream.<br>Good-bye max.<br>Good-bye ma.<br>After the serng slowly to the car<br>And the silver in her hair shines in the cold november air<br>You hear the tolling bell<br>And touch the silk in your lapel<br>And as the tear drops rise to meet the comfort of the band<br>You take her frail hand<br>And hold on to the dream.<br>A place to stay<br>Oi! a real one ...<br>Enough to eat<br>Somewhere old heroes shuffle safely down the street<br>Where you can speak out loud<br>About your doubts and fears<br>And what's more no-one ever disappears<br>You never hear their standard issue kicking in your door.<br>You can relax on both sides of the tracks<br>And maniacs don't blow holes in bandsmen by remote control<br>And everyone has recourse to the law<br>And no-one kills the children anymore.<br>And no one kills the children anymore.<br><br>Night after night<br>Going round and round my brain<br>His dream is driving me insane.<br>In the corner of some foreign field<br>The gunner sleeps tonight.<br>What's done is done.<br>We cannot just write off his final scene.<br>Take heed of his dream.<br>Take heed.
