Lyrics
0:07bon jovi
0:21it was another day
0:23a perfect texas afternoon
0:25a mother and two children play
0:28the way they always do
0:29as they raced home from the mailbox
0:31a mother and her son
0:33against a little girl of 6 years old
0:35the independant one
0:44the deputies went door to door
0:46through all the neighborhood
0:48they said i got some news to tell you folks
0:50i'm afraid it ain't so good
0:51somehow something happened
0:53someone got away
0:55someone got the answers for what happened here today
0:59oh no, oh no, oh no, no, no, no
1:07tell me it was just a dream - august 7 4:15
1:14god closed his eyes and the world got mean
1:18august 7 4:15
1:36now the people from the papers and the local tv news
1:40tried to find the reason
1:42cop dogs sniffed around for clues
1:44someone shouted "hit and run"
1:46the coroner cried "foul"
1:48her blue dress was what she wore
1:50the day they laid her body down
1:52oh no, oh no, oh no, no, no, no
2:00tell me it was just a dream - august 7 4:15
2:07god closed his eyes and the world got mean
2:10august 7 4:15
2:43i know tonight that there's an angel
2:46up on heaven's highest hill
2:48and no one there can hurt you baby
2:50no one ever will
2:52somewhere someone's conscience is like a burning bed
2:55the flames are all around you
2:57how you gonna sleep again
2:59oh no, oh no, oh no, no, no, no
3:07tell me it was just a dream - august 7 4:15
3:14god closed his eyes and the world got mean
