| Come now through all of it, downtown and tenement
|
| Through dark clouds, all circling our house, like a tourniquet
|
| The front door splinters in, you come down the hall, unfaltering
|
| Your lips licked and shimmering, leaning in and I’m vanishing
|
| I close my eyes
|
| And you arrive
|
| But oh it’s just a dream, it’s just a dream
|
| But it’s just a dream until you see it happening
|
| In the plaza after work
|
| I saw you rise up out of your collared shirts
|
| On the horizon there was another world
|
| We left the phantom hand and we ran for her
|
| I close my eyes
|
| And we’re aligned
|
| And that’s a blinding light
|
| But oh it’s just a dream, it’s just a dream, it’s just a dream
|
| But it’s just a dream until you see it happening
|
| And then it changes everything
|
| Couldn’t we make, couldn’t we make, couldn’t we make it?
|
| Just like we want it, just like we need it?
|
| Why can’t we, just like a-
|
| Who says we can’t, who says we can’t, who says we shouldn’t?
|
| Who says we couldn’t make it just like we love it?
|
| Why can’t we just like a dream?
|
| Couldn’t we make, couldn’t we make, couldn’t we make it?
|
| Just like we want it, just like we need it?
|
| Why can’t we, just like a-
|
| Who says we can’t, who says we can’t, who says we shouldn’t?
|
| Who says we couldn’t make it just like we love it?
|
| Why can’t we just like a dream?
|
| But oh it’s just a dream |
