Dream Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He's been waking all through the night
Pacing around in the moonlight
Because these same dreams won't let him be
The cameras photographs everything
That he's been burying down beneath
And show him what he don't wanna see
He counts the hours creeping by
His thoughts racing, eyes stuck open wide
Tossing and turning through the night, oh the night
He has this one where he's being pursued
By every woman he ever knew
But at first grasp he wakes and gasps
He watches her laying there sound asleep
Wonders who's chasing her through her dreams
And when they do if it scares her too
He counts the hours creeping by
His thoughts racing, eyes open wide
Tossing and turning through the night, oh the night
And oh how he needs to get some sleep
But who waits down there so deep
Leaves him shaking him at the knees, it seems
He counts the hours creeping by
His thoughts racing, eyes open wide
Tossing and turning through the night, the night
And oh how he needs to get some sleep
But who waits down there so deep
Leaves him shaking him at the knees, it seems
