Carrie Underwood - Just A Dream

"Just A Dream" 

It was two weeks after  

the day she turned eighteen
All dressed in white
Going to the church that night

She had his box of letters
in the passenger seat
Sixpence in a shoe,
something borrowed, something blue

And when the church doors
opened up wide
She put her veil down
Trying to hide the tears

Oh she just couldn't believe it
She heard the trumpets
from the military band
And the flowers fell out of her hand

Baby why'd you leave me
Why'd you have to go?
I was counting on forever,
now I'll never know
I can't even breathe

It's like I'm looking from a distance
Standing in the background
Everybody's saying,
he's not coming home now

This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream

The preacher man said
let us bow our heads and pray
Lord please lift his soul, and heal this hurt
Then the congregation all stood up and sang
the saddest song that she ever heard

Then they handed her a folded up flag
And she held on to all she had left of him
Oh, and what could have been
And then the guns rang one last shot
And it felt like a bullet in her heart

Baby why'd you leave me
Why'd you have to go?
I was counting on forever,
now I'll never know
I can't even breathe

It's like I'm looking from a distance
Standing in the background
Everybody's saying,
he's not coming home now

This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream

Oh, Baby why'd you leave me
Why'd you have to go?
I was counting on forever,
now I'll never know
Oh, now I'll never know

It's like I'm looking from a distance
Standing in the background
Everybody's saying,
he's not coming home now

This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream
Oh, this is just a dream
Just a dream Yeah, Yeah
