Artist/Band: Talking Heads
Lyrics for Song: Dream Operator
Lyrics for Album: True Stories [1986]



When you were little

You dreamed you were big

You must have been something

A real tiny kid



You wish you were me

I wish I was you

Now don't you wake up

The dream will come true



Every dream has a name

And names tell your story

This song is your dream

You're the dream operator



It's bigger than life

You know it's all me

My face is a book

But it's not what it seems



Three angels above

The whole human race

They dream us to life

They dream me a face



And every dream tells it all

And this dream is your story

You dreamed me a heart

You're the dream operator



Shake-it-up dream

Hi-di-ho dream

Fix-it-up dream

Look at me dream

I've been waiting so long

Now I am your dream



Hard to forget

Hard to go on

When you fall asleep

You're out on your own



Let go of your life

Grab on to my hand

Here in the clouds

Where we'll understand



And you dreamed it all

And this is your story

Do you know who you are?

You're the dream operator



And you dreamed it all

And this is your story

Do you know who you are?

You're the dream operator
