A Dream Away
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.
Five in the mornin, ' all alone in your room
Door locked tight, private Moon
No faces to face, no one to blame
Nonexistent inside this frame
Take it on the run
Oo, yeah take it on the run
Uh yeah
There's a cheetah walkin' high
Liquid whispers, dragonfly
Charleston booties on painted toes
Drop the knot ivory soul
Take it on the run
Oo yeah, take it on the run
Oo yeah, take it on the run
Because the good life is just a dream away
I said the good life is just a dream awaaaay
Choke emotion, all lose control
Chicken encounters fill your bowls
The lonely crowd is decomposed
Lost obsession, future froze
Well, take it on the run
Oo yeah, take it on the run
Oo yeah, take it on the run
Take it on the run
Take it on the run
Take it on the run
Take it
'Cause the good life is just a dream away
Yeah, oo the good good life is just a dream away
Oo, oh well the good good good good life is just a dream away
Just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream, dream away
The good good good good life
The good life is just a dream away
Just a dream
Just a dream
Dream away
