lyrics
If there was a man I could dream of
I'd dream about a dream come true
If there was a man I could ever love
I'd wait a million years for someone like you
All my life I've been belated
Never taking chances
Always hesitating
Where's the payoff?
Where's the glory?
Where's the one that I'm holding out for?
When's he walking through the door?
The one that you walked through
If there was a man I could dream of
I'd dream about a dream come true
If there was a man I could ever love
I'd wait a million years for someone like you
Happy endings never find me!
I put all my fantasies and hopes of love behind me
All my moments overdue, but
If there was a man out there for me I wish that
It was someone who'd love me true
That someone was you
I'd dream about a dream come true
If there was a man I could ever love
I'd wait a million years for someone like you
All my life I've been belated
Never taking chances
Always hesitating
Where's the payoff?
Where's the glory?
Where's the one that I'm holding out for?
When's he walking through the door?
The one that you walked through
If there was a man I could dream of
I'd dream about a dream come true
If there was a man I could ever love
I'd wait a million years for someone like you
Happy endings never find me!
I put all my fantasies and hopes of love behind me
All my moments overdue, but
If there was a man out there for me I wish that
It was someone who'd love me true
That someone was you

Seven Christmas Songs

Pre Drinks (...with Tom John Hall)
by Tom John Hall'Axis Of Distraction' is the sound of the summer. Sip it up.

Curse These Metal Hands
by Conjurer and Pijn"Alexa, play something magnificent". Joe who recorded Colour Phase also played a key role in writing/playing/recording this. Think Baroness playing early Grails riffs with the occasional blastbeat.
