My Slumbering Heart |
In my dreams, I see myself hitting a baseball |
In a green field somewhere near a freeway |
I’m all tan and smiling and running from third base |
And it’s hot and the kids keep on playing the driving game |
And they’re singing the same goddamn refrain |
And the sky is a bluish grey |
And it’s become just like a chemical stress |
Tracing the lines in my face for |
Something more beautiful than is there |
I’ve barely been gone |
In my dreams, I see you at the foot of some mountains |
And we’re taking some pictures or something |
And we’d better hurry up |
And it’s late and the sun keeps on shooting through pine trees |
And the grass stains are wet on your new jeans |
And we’d better hurry up |
And I’ve become just like a terrible mess |
Searching the lines in my face for |
Something more beautiful than is there |
The crowds keep me coming back, cheering |
In my dreams, I see you asleep on a twin bed |
The covers pulled up over your head |
Am I asleep or awake? |
And it’s morning and the captain is playing the radio |
And he’s just put the paint on his new boat |
Am I asleep or awake? |
And it just feels good when you’re waking up |
And it just feels good when you’re next to me |
And it just feels good when you’re coming home |
And it just feels good when it’s waking up |
(My slumbering heart) |
And I’ve become just like a chemical stress |
Tracing the lines in my face for |
Something more beautiful than is there |
I’ve barely been gone |
And I’m not a failure, I swear |
I wish you could see it from over there |
I’ve got a lot over here without you |
I’ve barely been gone |
Gone, dreaming |
My mom, she cried about money and time |
And how she felt older |
And I didn’t understand much |
She left, I stayed |
My dad played in the bar |
And I wondered if I looked like him |
He was small even with boots on |
He looked like an Eskimo |
And we were in Alaska |
In the airport, I had seen or |
Imagined a mural of an Arctic scene |
With seals and people seemed nicer than me |
Where they smoked and talked about the disappearing ground |
