Letra de Dreams Old Men Dream
Thought I was laying in the gutter in Milk cartons and bones But I was standing on a mountin top Looking over your homesThought I was laying my garden with My hands deep in soil But I was there on an island Shooting flares at your boatThought I was soothing like a violin Confessing new rain But I was piping like a trumpet Frantic for fameThought I was built like a building's built Iron, concrete and stone I realize I'm just a hack actor Finished playing my roleYour reading my thoughts Dreams old men dream It's just like when we were kids We'd lay around wondering We try to listen to what they sayThought I was writing for a hundred hours Looking straight into me But I was reading on the news paper ObituariesThought I was nervous like a mailman Reading your letters, dear But I was at our anniversary Toasting 30 yearsYour reading my thoughts Dreams old men dream It's just like when we were kids We'd lay around wonderingWe try to listen to what they say We try to listen to what they sayPush my piano outside I don't care, I don't care Beneath the meteor black sky I don't care, I don't careThe neighbours will complain Let them stare, let them stare Who knows where the time goes? I don't care, I don't careWhat would you think of me if I told you I haven't slept in weeks? I've been up chasing my childhood with a pin These are dreams old men dream
