lyrics

Down into my daydreams,
that’s one place I’ll never go
And the people I won’t meet there
don’t tell me things I’ll never know
I’ll go it alone, and I miss that place,
but those faces are far behind

You filled a fancy tower full of
flowers and really fine wine
But I never could find the time

Deep in my dreams there’s an army
they’re slaving away all day
Stacking the bricks up, higher and higher
‘til my dreams get carried away
You won’t find a road to get there
And I hung it all out on the line

Hey, tomorrow,
I only need one yesterday
I didn’t know you were hollow
I even shocked myself
Your cup of life was empty
And I was drinking to your health
To your health

So I go out counting flowers,
It don’t bother me at all
And my eyes were made for the nighttime so
you know I never trip and fall
But I tripped over my own ego
When I thought I could read your mind
