"Did I Catch You Dreaming" lyrics
"Did I Catch You Dreaming"
Did I catch you dreaming
Did I catch you drifting away
Did I catch you hoppin' a train to an ancient rendezvous
Did I watch you leaning
Falling softly into the gray
Of an absent moon
Lilting through the noon of an absent day
Are you troubled and lonely
Or are you at peace in your heart
Does the scuffling pace of the human race
Echo through the dark (lovely dark)
No I hope when dreaming
There is only dreamland to do
And when you awake I hope dreams will wait for you
Did I catch you dreaming
Are you floating high in the blue
Did I catch that gleam in your sigh as you fly new altitudes
Are you safe from scheming
Are you far from merry go rounds
Will the hazy forms of an aimless morn wash away the sounds
Are you curled and cozy in the labyrinth womb of your mind
Are you something rare in the parceled air of a distant time (far from thine)
Yes I hope when dreaming there is only dreamland to do
And when you awake I hope dreams will follow you

Kirsty MacColl - "In These Shoes?" I once met a man with a sense of adventure
He was dressed to thrill, wherever he went
He said: Let's make love on a mountain top
Under the stars on a big hard rock
I said: In these shoes?

Forever and ever, amen
So I'll touch wood
