Lyrics
Daydream Believer
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.
Oh I could hide neath the wings
of the bluebird as she sings
The six o'clock alarm would never ring
but it rings and I rise
wipe the sleep out of my eyes
my shaving razors cold and it stings
(Chorus)
Cheer up sleepy Jean
oh what can it mean
to a daydream believer
and a homecoming queen
You once thought of me
as a white knight on his steed
now you know how happy I can be
oh and our good times start and end
without dollar one to spend
but how much baby do we really need
(Repeat Chorus 2xs)
(break)
(Repeat Chorus 2xs)
