Lyrics
Dreams
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.
He dreams that he is eating but he never eats a thing
He dreams that he is working he dreams that he does sing
But if you ever ask him there are no ifs and buts
The best dream that he's ever had is that he did wake up
He dreams he is a hero he dreams he's saved a life
He dreams he's got a big house and a beautiful wife
But if you ever ask him there are no ifs and buts
The best dream that he's ever had is that he did wake up
He dreams he's got a country of which he is the king
That on his neck and on his wrist the diamonds they cling
But if you ever ask him there are no ifs and buts
The best dream that he's ever had is that he did wake up
He didn't wake up!
