The Tragically Hip - Last Night I Dreamed You Didn't Love Me Lyrics

You kissed my fingers and made me love you
Last night when we went to hell
When the blood-starred curtain fell
Men were turning on their machines, making everything mean
Fires burned, cold values clashed
Good and evil were all dry grass
No child-ghost, no singing bird, no last laugh, no last word

Oh, last night I dreamed
Last night I dreamed darkly nurtured dreams
None of them were quite as frightening
Oh, Canada emptied, there was me featureless and freezing
Last night I dreamed you didn't love me

You kissed my fingers and made me love you

Last night you left me derelict
And disappeared for ages
You said 'honey save those tears of yours for the show
Oh, last night I dreamed
Last night I dreamed darkly nurtured dreams
None of them were half as frightening
Oh, Canada emptied, there was me, beside you
Featureless and freezing
Last night I dreamed you didn't love me
You didn't love me

What's happening to you?
Why don't you love me like you used to?
When you kissed my fingers and you made me love you
When you kissed my fingers and you made me love you

Last night I dreamed
Last night I dreamed darkly nurtured dreams
None of them, none as frightening
Oh, awake empty and out of sleep
You were beside me gently breathing
Last night I dreamed you didn't love me

You didn't love me
You didn't love me
Why don't you love me like you used to?
When you kissed my fingers and you made me love you
