Dreams

There are dreams that sail away to sea

Dreams that stay at home

There are dreams in need of company

Some that stand alone

There are dreams that stay inside all day

And never see the light

And if dreams come true, I swear to you

I'll dream of you tonight



In the corner bar the local star

Destroys a passing chord

He sits behind a Mason jar

And dreams of his reward

Then he takes his break

He counts his take

A dollar buys a beer

A quarter of his life is gone

What's he doing here



Now times are hard

The old backyard is buried in cement

The people seem afraid to dream

And dreams don't cost a cent



There are dreams that stay inside all day

And never see the light

And if dreams come true, I swear to you

I'll dream of you tonight

And if dreams come true, I swear to you

I'll dream of you tonight
