The Wedding Dream
[Intro]
My Mother is entering my dream now
She's wearing a wedding dress
Something's wrong with the way she walks the aisle
I think it's her legs
Suddenly there is someone else beside her
That man I recognize
The doctor intends to marry Mother
It's got to be stopped
[Verse 1]
Oh, now what have I done?
My Mother's on the floor and the doctor's gone
Oh, everything is wrong
And as I keep the axe, I wonder what's to come
[Chorus]
I'm caught within a dream, there's no way out, I can't escape
If only I could see the light of day, I might escape the dream
The wedding dream, oh, the dream
[Bridge 1]
Now everything turns to darkness
Deep within, I feel like I'm going blind
There is a light at the end of this starless nightmare
Someone's calling, guiding me back inside the dream, no
[Guitar Solo: Pete Blakk]
[Guitar Solo: Andy LaRocque]
[Verse 2]
Oh, get away from him Mother
You better stop kissing, ow, 'cause he's an enemy
Oh, take a look at his hand
He's got the key to my house, the doctor is the Devil
[Chorus]
I'm caught within a dream, there's no way out, I can't escape
If only I could see the light of day, I might escape the dream
The wedding dream, oh, the dream
[Guitar Solo: Pete Blakk]
[Guitar Solo: Andy LaRocque]
[Refrain]
Dream, the wedding dream, oh, the dream
[Bridge 2]
Now everything turns to darkness
Deep within, I feel like I'm going blind
There is a light at the end of this starless nightmare
Someone's screaming, "Help me please!" and it's me
[Outro]
At sunrise I woke up in a sweat
The nightmare was gone
The dream I was sent is fading slowly
I do not understand
