Four Seasons, seconds, flicker, and flash, I'm alone
A lonely scream provides the scene, it's no hope
Every night I hear you scream, but you don't say what you mean
This was my dream, but now my dream has flown

I'm at the crossroads, waiting for a sign
My life is standing still, but I'm still alive
Every night I think I know
In the morning where did it go?
The answers disappear when I open my eyes

I'm no stranger to this place, where real life and dreams collide
And even though I fall from grace, I will keep the dream alive
I will keep the dream alive

Four Seasons, seconds, flicker, and flash, I'm alone
A lonely scream provides the scene, it's no hope
Every night I hear you scream, but you don't say what you mean
This was my dream, but now my dream has flown

I'm no stranger to this place, where real life and dreams collide
And even though I fall from grace, I will keep the dream alive
I'm no stranger to this place, where real life and dreams collide
And even though I fall from grace, I will keep the dream alive

    This is a great tune of DBTT, I 've always perceived that the lyrics had a simple meaning of going through troubled times but at the same time keeping some faith and keeping the dream alive in which hopefuly one day thing will turn out right. I listen to this quite alot especially when things don't go right for me and it acts as a release, with the tune making me feel better than I did before. Andy Bell's lyrics should feature more on the next Oasis albums cos from this he's righting some top lyrics which people can easily relate to.
