Lyrics
Beautiful Dreamers
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.
And gunning for a miracle
One they can't take away
And found it in a skinny girl
Might have been half his age
And Betty likes to push his buttons
And Marco he lose his cool
And call each other good for nothin'
Yet when the war is through
They crawl out the fire escape
And take sweet time making up
Ooh ooh ooh beautiful dreamers
Ooh ooh ooh beautiful ones
Ooh ooh ooh beautiful dreamers
Ooh ooh ooh
And Carla she's a true romantic
Living her life in verse
And Daniel was her live in love
When everything turned for worse
It could have been a chance relation
Both of them lonely souls
And struggle with the big decisions
And both of them growing old
And now and then they break their vows
To spend these nights alone
Ooh ooh ooh beautiful dreamers
Ooh ooh ooh beautiful ones
Ooh ooh ooh beautiful ones
Ooh ooh ooh beautiful dreamers
Ooh ooh ooh beautiful ones
Ooh ooh ooh
Beautiful dreamers odd ones
All of us trapped in the webs we've spun
Beautiful Venus love love
All of us flying too close to the sun
Close the sun
And honey what of you and I
And how will they tell our story
Maybe like a movie script
Seen through an open doorway
And as the camera pulls away
We could have been anybody
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh beautiful dreamers
Ooh ooh ooh beautiful ones
Ooh ooh ooh beautiful ones
Ooh ooh ooh dreamers
Ooh ooh ooh yeah yeah yeah
Ooh ooh ooh beautiful dreamers
Beautiful ones
