about

It's not.

lyrics

Well I had a dream
That I was dancing one day
Down in the bayou
On a warm summer's day
Like vaudeville ragtime
With top hat attire
And when I woke in the morning
My clothes were on fire

But if you knew if you knew
You would say wasn't I right all along
If you knew what I'd done today
You'd let me burn up in the flames you'd say that I'd done wrong

I had a dream that I was alone
And all my deeds had been etched into stone
Well my premonition it came true
Despite everything I gave to you
And when I'd given in to my desire
I woke up with my house on fire

But if you knew if you knew
You would say wasn't I right all along
If you knew what I'd done today
You'd let me burn up in the flames you'd say that I'd done wrong
So I will take my secrets to the grave
I'll lock them up so far away
Swallow the key, break the lock
'Cause I don't think that you could take it
If you knew if you knew it would break your heart in two
