Daylight Dreamer

Here's the half-finished painting of a girl that I started last December

Here's the first three pages of my novel bout I don't really remember

Here's my Martin guitar that I never quite learned how to play

That's the daylight dreamer wishful thinker's way

I had a Harley bike but I traded it off to a feller

For the Astroglass boat that's still sittin down in my cellar

I bought a tape recorder and found I had nothin' to say

That's the daylight dreamer wishful thinker's way

I got an exercise machine man I'd be glad to let you try it

This well it's a Leika Camera maybe you'd like to buy it

I can get you a real good deal

I just need enough money to buy myself some modeling clay

Yeah that's the daylight dreamer wishful thinker's way

On the day that I die they'll be talking about the dearly departed

And they'll say he never ever finished nothin' that he started

But I started this song man I'm gonna finish it today

Yeah that's the daylight dreamer

(How was it...daylight...oh wish...wishful...think...what were it...

I forgot I forgot the words

Listen... anyway... why don't we just take a break and finish it later you know

Cause I could sure use a sandwich

I wanna get myself a BLT or something

And listen... right near the restaurant there's a great old bookstore.

Right near the restaurant

They got all these great old books... great old comic books...they got Batman
