Just A Dream - Carrie Underwood

It was two weeks after the day she turned 18
all dressed in white
going to the church that night
She had his box of letters in the passenger seat
six pence and a shoe
Something borrowed, something blue
And when the church doors opened up wide
She put her veil down trying to hide the tears
Oh she just couldn't believe it
She heard the trumpets from the military band
And the flowers fell out of her hands


Baby why'd you leave me
Why'd you have to go
I was counting on forever
Now I'll never know
I can't even breathe
It's like I'm looking from a distance
Standing in the background
Everybody saying he's not coming home now
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream


The preacher man said, " Let us bow our heads and pray "
" Lord please lift his soul and heal this hurt "
Then the congegration all stood up and sang
The saddest song that she ever heard
Then they handed her a folded up flag
And she held on to all she had left of him
Oh And what could've been
And the guns rang one last shot
And it felt like a bullet in her heart

   Baby why'd you leave me 
   Why'd you have to go 
   I was counting on forever 
   Now I'll never know 
   I can't even breathe 
   It's like I'm looking from a distance 
   Standing in the background 
   Everybody's saying he's not coming home now 
   This can't be happening to me 
   This is just a dream 

   Baby why'd you leave me 
   Why'd you have to go 
   I was counting on forever 
   Now I'll never know 
   Oh I'll never know 
   It's like I'm looking from a distance 
   Standing in the background 
   Everybody's saying he's not coming home now 
   This can't be happening to me  
   This is just a dream 
   Oh this is just a dream 
   Just a dream 
   Yeah 
   Yeah
