Faust - Paul Williams

I was not myself last night

Couldn’t set things right with apologies or flowers

Out of place as a cryin' clown

Who could only frown and the play went on for hours

And as I lived my role

I swore I’d sell my soul for one love

Who would stand by me

(Who would stand by me)

And give me back the gift of laughter

(Laughter, yeah)

One love

Who would stand by me

(Who would stand by me)

And after making love we’d

Dream a bit of style

(Dream)

We’d dream a bunch of friends

Dream each other’s smile

(Dream)

And dream it never ends

I was not myself last night

In the morning light I could see the change was showing

Like a child who was always poor

Reaching out for more I could feel the hunger growing

And as I lost control

I swore I’d sell my soul for one love

Who would sing my song

(Who would sing my song)

And fill this emptiness inside me

(Inside me, yeah)

One love

Who would sing my song

(Who would sing my song)

And lay beside me while we’d

Dream a bit of style

(Dream)

Dream a bunch of friends

Dream each other’s smile

Dream it never ends

All my dreams are lost and I can’t sleep

And sleep alone could ease my mind

All my tears have dried and I can’t weep

Old emotions may they rest in peace

And dream, dream a bunch of friends

Rest in peace, and dream, dream it never ends

And as I lived my role

I swore I’d sell my soul for one love

Who would sing my song

And fill this emptiness inside me

One love

Who would sing my song

And lay beside me while we’d dream

One love

Who would sing my song

And fill this emptiness inside me

One love

Who would sing my song

And lay beside me while we’d dream

One love

Who would sing my song

And fill this emptiness inside me…
