Dry Ice Lyrics


Late last night I had a dream
And she was in it again
She and I were in the sky
Flying hand in hand
I woke up in a cold sweat
Wishing she was by my side
Praying that she'll dry tears
Left on my face I've cried

[Chorus]
Oh, I love her
Keep dreaming of her
Will I understand
If she wants to be my friend?

I'll send a letter to that girl
Asking her to be my own
But my pen is writing wrong
So I'll say it in a song
Oh, I love you more right now
More than I've ever loved before
Here's those words straight from these lips
I'll need you forever more

[Chorus: x2]

Come ease the pain that's in my heart [Repeats]

Late last night I had a dream
And she was in it again
She and I were in the sky
Flying hand in hand
I woke up in a cold sweat
Wishing she was by my side
Praying that she'll dry tears
Left on my face I've cried

[Chorus: x2]

Come ease the pain that's in my heart [Repeats]

Dry Ice
  • Billie Joe Armstrong wrote this about a girl he had a secret crush on. Around this time, Armstrong would usually write lyrics after consuming alcohol, since it loosened his inhibitions and allowed him to express thoughts he wouldn't share if he didn't have a few drinks in him.
  • At the end of the song, you can faintly hear the band shouting "YES!" They kept messing up when recording the track, so when they finally got it right they were ecstatic. So they decided to leave it on.
