Queen Of False Alarms - Del Amitri

Last night I dreamt of you

You stood right here in my room

I could see you, I could feel you

Last night I swear, it was you

Right here in jeans and my old shoes

I could see you, I could feel you

So like a princess in my arms

But I wake up and I find

It’s the Queen of False Alarms

Last night I dreamt of you

Under the trees and a glass-eyed moon

Last night it happened again

You were in trouble and called my name

I could hear you, I could feel you

Here at the king’s side safe from harm

But I open up my eyes to Queen of False Alarms

I can’t recall why you left at all

You just wait, and I’ll slip the car in gear

I have nothing to fear, it was one of your charms

The Queen of False Alarms

I could feel you

Here at the king’s side safe from harm

But I open up my eyes and the sun cuts through the blinds

and I go looking for a sign of the Queen of False Alarms
