Beyond my wildest dreams

Mark Knopfler · Other Songs - Mark Knopfler

I didn't ask for much

As maybe i ought've

But i'm staying in touch

With the one i love

And i can see in the dials

And in these headlights beams

Beyond me wildest

Beyond me wildest dreams

Beyond me wildest dreams

Beyond me wildest dreams

I've been with you

I've been with you



These are the big playloads

Hammer down on the floor

These are the restless roads

Every one a war

But in the flashing lines

I see a love supreme

Beyond me wildest

Beyond me wildest dreams

Beyond me wildest dreams

Beyond me wildest dreams

I've been with you

I've been with you



They promised me some good home time

And some layover pay

The agent he's a friend of mine

Says it's due my way

I'd drive a thousand miles

Haul a trailer of tears

Just to see you smile

And as the dawn appears

At the edge of the night

There's still a light that gleams

Beyond me wildest

Beyond me wildest dreams

Beyond me wildest dreams

Beyond me wildest dreams

I've been with you

I've been with you
