Robert Forster - Dear Black Dream lyrics

My last and longest dream Dear - Black - Dream She asked me what it was I said what does it mean She said that it will be all right She said you've just had a troubled night I had this dream In a strange black Northern hotel I had this dream And it felt like I'd been through Hell She said do you have villains in your life Well I guess I do Are they vindictive and often cruel I thought she must know them too I had this dream In a strange black Northern hotel I had this dream And it felt like I'd been through Hell I dream of her in the colour Black She dreams of me in the colour Red Her red is soft and warm like cloth My black is Dear - Black - Dream My love and I sit in bed in the dark My love and I sit in bed in the dark Wondering who sings better in the dark Is it Townes Van Zandt, or is it Guy Clark?
