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
