[F] [Am]
[Dm] [Gm] [Bbm]
[F] [C]
[F] I saw you in my dreams, we were walking hand in hand.
One day, he asked for my phone number, and he told me, Oh, guess where I ride in them.
And I [G] said, Where?
He said, On the wall.
[Am] Yeah, living room.
Not knowing that the living room
and the kitchen is all connected as soon as you walk in to the front door, yeah.
And when
I went to the house one day, and I was sitting in a living room, it's like right there in
[Gb] red on the wall.
[Gm]
Oh yeah, [F] big, maybe almost a foot.
[C]
Almost a foot long, yeah.
He just
wrote it on a big white wall, and it stayed there.
[Gm] And [C] my sister-in-law came out and said,
Oh, you saw your phone number, [Am] and I [Bb] totally forgot about it.
And so, because I was sitting,
and it was like [C] behind that sign, so I had to lean [Gm] over and look, and it was just funny.
[C] I was embarrassed.
Of course, his mom [F] told him to take it off, but his sister always
got his way.
[Am] When he could afford it, he would always buy me roses.
[F]
Red, he would always
send me like two dozen roses, if not a dozen roses, and that big Junior Lou [C] tee.
[Am] And then
he would put [C] like two white [Gm] to represent him and my daughter.
[C] So that's what I tend to
do to these two.
We became mature adults several years before he passed away.
I guess through
him he's taught me [F] to not go backwards.
Could have done this, should have done that.
[Bb] So
I really don't think I've ever come across something really intense to say, I should
[Bbm] have told him this.
But I'm pretty much content and happy with what the [C] [F]
piece that we ended
things with, how it ended.
It was forgiving, it was filled with unconditional love, everything
was reason and purpose.
