"Dreams And Daydreams" lyrics

"Dreams And Daydreams"

Couldn't wait
To get back home again
Now I can
And I'd wait to get away again
Oh, no, no

Once you build
The world around your heart
Find it hard
To relocate that precious part
Oh, yes

That's broken
And where was it busted?
It's broken
In these dreams and daydreams

Who's the jerk you trusted around
And around
Finding a way?

Couldn't rest
The way I did those nights
Thought of home
As that thing's in an ancient light
Oh, no, no

So I'm looking for
The goddess with gray eyes
To cast a sweet
Sleeping which I will realize
Oh, yes

It's broken
But it can't re-mend it
The tokens
In these dreams and daydreams

When it shines, I'll grab it around
And around
Finding a way
