Another time, another day 
Another baby on the way 
A dreamboy for your nightmare nights 
Who never shouts and never fights 
Happy with your 2.2 
What else is there for you to do 
But turn and wet the baby's head 
And pray he will be happier than you or me? 
That's how it's meant to be 
It's called a lifetime 
At first you never notice 
Then the years go flying by and I say 
Tread lightly in your dreams 
They might come true for you tomorrow 
 
Say sorry to the boys and girls 
You're sorry for this bloody world 
Sorry for the sick and old 
And sorry for the lies you told 
Sorry for the things I did 
The thighs we should have left unsaid 
And walked away instead of 
Rubbing salt on all those open sores and wounds 
We should have left to heal 
I never knew just what to feel or to expect 
I tried to stretch my mind but I'd just 
Get my body wrecked and now I 
Tread lightly in my dreams 
They might come true tomorrow 
And I don't sleep at night in case 
I don't wake up tomorrow 
I curse the day I met you 
But I won't forget you 
Not in my lifetime 

Another time, another day 
You'd never give your heart away 
You'd never think and never cry 
You'd look the devil in the eye 
And tell him to be gone, bye bye 
He'll never get you in this lifetime 
He'd love to touch you but his hands are tied 
So just tread lightly in your dreams 
They might come true for you tomorrow 
Tread lightly in your dreams 
They might come true for you tomorrow 
They might come true for you tomorrow 
They might come true tomorrow
