Another grey dawn another day gone |
|
Deeper in debt as the night draws in |
|
There's something inside me |
|
Rings like a melody |
|
Pullin' my heart like a frozen wind |
|
Seems like most of my life's spent gettin' by day to day |
|
Fendin' off new hard times arrival |
|
Little by little I try as the days go by |
|
Waitin' around on some kind of luck's revival |
|
There's a full moon risin' just about midnight |
|
A high tide comin' 'round just about dawn |
|
But I know it can't last |
|
Livin' on dreams and the shadows they cast |
|
Got to be strong |
|
One of these days I gotta be gone |
|
Been livin' on dreams just a little too long |
|
The sleep comes hard and money does too |
|
So I wake up worried in the mornin' light |
|
As the sun comes through the tears in the window shades |
|
It don't seem fair that it has to be such a fight |
|
The women keep comin' 'round |
|
Spendin' my hard earned pay |
|
Bent on the minimization of my survival |
|
Been holdin' me down |
|
But one fine day |
|
Gonna break these chains of denial |
|
There's a full moon risin' just about midnight |
|
A high tide comin' 'round just about dawn |
|
But I know it can't last |
|
Livin' on dreams and the shadows they cast |
|
Got to be strong |
|
One of these days I gotta be gone |
|
Been livin' on dreams just a little too long |
|
Little by little I try as the days go by |
|
To find some way to break these chains of denial |
|
There's a full moon risin' just about midnight |
|
A high tide comin' 'round just about dawn |
|
But I know it can't last |
|
Livin' on dreams and the shadows they cast |
|
Got to be strong |
|
One of these days I gotta be gone |
|
Been livin' on dreams just a little too long |
