Just a Dream Lyrics » Carrie Underwood
[Verse 1]
It was two weeks after the day she turned eighteen
All dressed in white, goin’ to the church that night
She had his box of letters in the passenger seat
Sixpence in a shoe, somethin’ borrowed, somethin’ blue
[Pre-Chorus]
And when the church doors opened up wide
She put her veil down, tryin’ 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
[Chorus]
Baby, why’d you leave me? Why’d you have to go?
I was countin’ on forever, now I’ll never know
I can’t even breathe
It’s like I’m lookin’ from a distance, standin’ in the background
Everybody’s sayin’ he’s not comin’ home now
This can’t be happenin’ to me
This is just a dream
[Verse 2]
The preacher man said, “Let us bow our heads and pray
Lord, please lift his soul and heal this hurt”
Then the congregation all stood up and sang
The saddest song that she ever heard
[Pre-Chorus]
And then they handed her a folded-up flag
And she held on to all she had left of him
Oh, and what could have been
And then the guns rang one last shot
And it felt like a bullet in her heart
[Chorus]
Baby, why’d you leave me? Why’d you have to go?
I was countin’ on forever, now I’ll never know
I can’t even breathe
It’s like I’m lookin’ from a distance, standin’ in the background
Everybody’s sayin’ he’s not comin’ home now
This can’t be happenin’ to me
This is just a dream
[Bridge]
Ooh, baby, why’d you leave me? Why’d you have to go?
I was countin’ on forever
Now I’ll never know
Oh, I’ll never know
[Chorus]
It’s like I’m lookin’ from a distance, standin’ in the background
Everybody’s sayin’ he’s not comin’ home now
This can’t be happenin’ to me
This is just a dream

FAQs About Just a Dream
What did Carrie Underwood say about “Just a Dream”?
Co writer Hillary Lindsey:
Gordie Sampson, Steven McEwan and I would camp out and just write. I think the music was [composed previously]. We had the music and the melody and the verses started flying out. It was clear it was about a girl going to a wedding but she was really going to a funeral. I called my mom about what you put in a shoe. If I’m writing a redneck song about rednecks fishing, I’ll call my dad. We had the chorus with the hook, ‘It was just a dream.’ We were worried it was too clichéd, but then decided who cares if it’s a cliché, when it’s the truth.”
