Day Dreams About Night Things

Ronnie Milsap · RCA Country Legends: Ronnie Milsap [Buddha] [2001]

I'm having day dreams 'bout night things

In the middle of the afternoon

And while my hands make a living my mind's home loving you

I'm having day dreams about night things

In the middle of the afternoon

And every night you make my daydreams come true.



Well, all day long while I'm working in town

Time slows down to a crawl

When I'm not thinking about you

I'm checking the clock on the wall.



Then it's goodbye factory and hello loving

There's a smile across my face

'Cause I'm back in the arms of your sweet love

Where my thoughts have been all day.



I'm having day dreams bout night things

In the middle of the afternoon

And while my hands make a living my mind's home loving you

I'm having day dreams about night things

In the middle of the afternoon

And every night you make my daydreams come true.



Yea, Every night you make my day dreams come true...
