Dreams Dissolve in Tears

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Jules Shear, Pal Shazar] From the very first moment that she met him He was always saying goodbye Never with his voice but with his touch and with his eyes It was easy to stay up late And make plans that neither meant Not to deceive or with plans to leave It was pure without intent [Chorus: Jules & Pal, Jules] Salt dissolves in water Youth dissolves in years But it's the hardest fade to watch the way That dreams dissolve in tears [Verse 2: Pal, Jules] The dream started with a single in the Village Which she liked 'cause she could see the trees But he got in bad trouble that drove them all the way to Albany She watched in front of them He watched behind his back That far from the city lights Night got pretty black [Chorus: Jules & Pal] Salt dissolves in water Youth dissolves in years But it's the hardest fade to watch the way That dreams dissolve in tears [Bridge: Jules] From next door a radio played She started banging on the wall It was some terrible song she could remember loving Now she couldn't stand that song at all [Verse 3: Jules & Pal] He couldn't turn his back around With the contacts at his local bar Destruction got too easy Thinking got too hard And of course she was crying again One night out of two And he'd say there's always someone crying somewhere Tonight I guess it's you [Chorus: Jules & Pal] Salt dissolves in water Youth dissolves in years But it's the hardest fade to watch the way That dreams dissolve in tears Salt dissolves in water Youth dissolves in years But it's the hardest fade to watch the way That dreams dissolve in tears
