Lyrics
Dream Somehow
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.
Come to the rescue now
Come to the rescue and stay for a little while
Come to the burning house
All of the ladybug's children are screaming, "fire"
Come to the rescue now
Life is a dream somehow
Life is a game that is ruled with an iron fist
Life is a broken nose
Life is a sly little smile and a virgin's kiss
Come to the rescue now
Tomorrow may change—tomorrow may change
Or it may never come
Tomorrow may change—tomorrow may change
But it may never come
Turn around—turn around—turn around—what do you see?
Come to the rescue now
Come to rescue before all our worlds collide
Life is a dream somehow
Life is speck of dust lodged in God's eye
Life is a dream somehow
Come to the rescue now
Come with a mission and come with a broken heart
Life is a dream somehow
Life is a dream and our lives are a world apart
Come to the rescue now
Tomorrow may change—tomorrow may change
Or it may never come
Tomorrow may change—tomorrow may change
But it may never come
Turn around—turn around—turn around—what do you see?
Come to the rescue
Life is a dream somehow
Life is a nightmare and life is a bitter pill
(Life is a dream somehow)
Life is a disneyland ride, which is better still
Come to the rescue now
Life is a drowning pool
Life is a circus for fools just like you and me
Life is a mortal coil
Wrapped in cheap tinfoil on a kitchen sink
Come to the rescue now
Tomorrow may change—tomorrow may change
Or it may never come
Tomorrow may change—tomorrow may change
But it may never come
Turn around—turn around—turn around—what do you see?
Dream somehow; come to the rescue now....
