I dreamed she came back home last night Asked her where she'd been She said I've been around the world and It almost did me in She said I hope you didn't wait too long I have no sense of time I see you've written one Last Song And I realized it's mine Think of all the times we talked Sing a nursery rhyme Close your eyes I'm right beside you Run for miles you know I'll find you Cause it's all the same Change your lovers Change your name If you need a friend Close your eyes I'm back again She really came back home last night Seemed as if she'd changed Said that she go back to school And try things once again But you know it didn't take too long Till she lost her way And all the reason in the world could see She couldn't stay As I helped her pack her things It didn't hurt to say Close your eyes I'm right beside you Run for miles you know I'll find you Cause it's all the same Change your lovers Change your name If you need a friend Close your eyes I'm back again Cause it's all the same Change your lovers Change your name If you need a friend Close your eyes I'm back again
