Stevie Nicks - The Nightmare Lyrics
Written by stevie nicks.Thrown down through the arms of sleepShe fell through the ivory morningDeep into the watersOf the one she called loveShe paled in the wakeOf what some call a dreamBut, you cannot know a dreamTill youve known the nightmareWhen I stood with you against the stormAnd I tried once againWell, I said, Id like to leave youWith something warmHow many timesDrowning in the seaDrowningThat was when the dream took her prisonerAnd she knew the dream was overBut, the nightmare was not overStill some call that a dreamThe nightmare... the nightmareWell, you cannot know a dreamWhen you turn awayYou dont knowYoull never careThe night is not your friendAnd you have not had herAnd when the nightmare endsBut, you never understandWhen youre goneShe wakes up calling outOh, calling outAs children may cry as she willAnytime, oh, anywhereBlinded by the light of the dayShe has known the nightmareSo about the moon and her sistersHow dare he take them prisonerWell, if she had flung out her heart against himThen in all of her wisdomOh, well that was a mysteryThat was when the dream took her prisonerAnd she knew the dream was overBut the nightmare was not overSomewhere in her ancient waysShe walks through the nightAnd then she tries to get through the daySome will never knowOr share any kind of dreamThe nightmareThis is not the worldThis is not the worldThis is not the worldThe nightmareShe wants him to fight... anytime, anywhereShe wants him to stand upShe wants him to winThis is not the worldThis is not the worldThis is not the real worldBlinded by the light of the dayBlinded by the lightShe was blinded by the light of the dayBlinded by the day
