Who would've thought that the dreams come true?

And who would've thought i ended up with you?

And who would've thought what they said was true?

But it was and you are, lighted darkness come through



Silhouetted palm trees backing it up against the sky

Echo park sunset, an ambulance drives by

But someone went down

And i wonder who

Faces flash forward, it could be anybody i knew



So i drank like a fish and i crawled like a rat

Through the city of shit i ended up on my back

But i can't believe you're with me after dark

So let it come together in echo park



And i say

Who would've thought that the dreams come true?

And who would've thought i ended up with you?

And who would've thought what they said was true?

But it was and you are, lighted darkness come through



A red flag and your body wins

Or a snake bite, gotta start again

So i'm fucked up and watching tv all day

I don't wanna see what ricki lake gotta say



And it hits me when i'm alone, i'm an angry man

I start singing to myself i got dealt a shitty hand

With all these feelings my heart could explode

So is it not fear, knowing it all



And i say

Who would've thought that the dreams come true?

And who would've thought i ended up with you?

And who would've thought what they said was true?

It was and you are, lighted darkness come through



Nah nah nah nah nah



Who would've thought that the dreams come true?

And who would've thought i ended up with you?

And who would've thought what they said was true?

But it was and you are, lighted darkness come through
