never had this dream before

Carl Douglas

No, no, baby
No, no

In my time
I been a poet
An angel of mercy
That you won't forget
I was a boatman
People came to see
But in all my travels, baby
No one's been what you've been to me

'Cause I've never had this dream before
Never had this dream before
Never had this dream before
No, no, babe
Never had this dream before
No, no

I was down
A heavy loser
Walking in circles
Looking for a shangri-la
But when I met you
My soul began to breathe
You gave me my direction
I'll go anywhere you lead

'Cause I've never had this dream before
Never had this dream before
Never had this dream before
No, no, baby
Never had this dream before
No, no

Close your eyes and go to sleep, yeah
Me and you, we're just a pile of sheep

Never had this dream before
No, no, baby
Never had this dream before
Never had this dream before
Say it again
Never had this dream before
No, no, baby

Never had this dream before
Never had this dream before
I never had a dream
Oh no, baby
No, no, baby
One more time
