Lindsey Cardinale - Nothin' Like A Dream Lyrics

Lonnie Ratliff / Tara Lyn Mohr

It was Southern Louisiana 1999
Two friends reachin' for the brass ring, planning out their lives
You said you'd have white picket fences, lead the Cinderella life
I've heard that he's rock solid and you've made the perfect wife
(MOD)

I kept a picture of the Ryman on an old postcard
Marie you always shared my dream, It didn't seem that far
But now it's one more song and penny tossed into the wishing well
I pay my dues, keep on singing and believing in myself

(Chorus)
But it ain't nothin' like we talked about Marie
Nothin' like you and I thought that it would be
It seems like every step you take there's a piper to be paid
And when the foot lights from the stage blind your view
You can't always see their face
But you give your heart and soul on faith
When they give it back to you
There's nothin' like a dream coming true

(Bridge)
Sometimes I can't help but envy you Marie
And knowing you the way I do I bet that's a two way street
When the truth is neither one of us would ever trade their place
Since Louisiana 99 we've both come a ways

(Repeat Chorus) Tag: There's nothin' like a dream coming true
