Jon Bon Jovi Lyrics

12. August 7, 4:15

[This song is dedicated to the memory of Katherine Korzilius.]
[Sometimes God calls His angels ... too soon.]

Ah... 
It was another day 
Perfect Texas afternoon 
Mother and two children play 
The way they always do 
As they raced home from the mailbox 
A mother and her son 
Against a little girl of six years old 
The independent one 

Ah... 
The deputies went door to door through all the neighborhood 
They said I got some news to tell you folks 
I'm afraid it ain't so good 
Somehow something happened 
Someone got away 
Someone got the answers for what happened here today 
Oh no, oh no, oh no no no no 

Tell me it was just a dream - August 7, 4:15 
God closed His eyes and the world got mean - August 7, 4:15 

Now the people from the papers 
And the local TV news tried to find the reason 
Cop dogs sniffed around for clues 
Someone shouted "Hit and run" 
The coroner cried "Foul" 
Her blue dress was what she wore 
The day they laid her body down 
Oh no, oh no, oh no no no no 

Tell me it was just a dream - August 7, 4:15 
God closed His eyes and the world got mean - August 7, 4:15 
No... 

[Guitar solo]

I know tonight that there's an angel up on Heaven's highest hill 
And no one there can hurt you baby, no one ever will 
Somewhere someone's conscience is like a burning bed 
The flames are all around you 
How you gonna sleep again ? 
Oh no, oh no, oh no no no no 

Tell me it was just a dream - August 7, 4:15 
God closed His eyes and the world got mean - August 7, 4:15 

Tell me it was just a dream - August 7, 4:15 
God closed His eyes and the world got mean - August 7, 4:15 
[ 4:15 to fade ]
