Dreamin' of You

Up, Down.

The light in this place is really bad
Like being at the bottom of a stream
Any minute now
I'm expecting to wake up from a dream
Miss so much
The softest touch
Like the grave of some child
Who neither wept nor smiled
I'm hiding my faith in the rain
I've been dreamin' of you
That's all I do
And it's driving me insane

Somewhere dawn is breaking
Light is streaking 'cross the floor
Church bells are ringin'
I wonder who they're ringin' for
Travel under any star
You'll see me wherever you are

The shadowy past
Is so vague and so vast
I'm sleeping in the palace of pain
I've been dreamin' of you
That's all I do
But it's driving me insane

Maybe they'll get me
Maybe they won't
But whatever it won't be tonight
I wish your hand was in mine right now
We could go where the moon is white

For years they had me locked in a cage
Then they threw me onto the stage
Somethings just last longer than you thought they would
And they never ever explain
I been dreamin' of you
That's all I do
And it's driving me insane

Well I eat when I'm hungry
Drink when I'm dry
Live my life on the square
Even if the flesh falls off my face
It won't matter long as you're there

Feel like a ghost in love
Underneath the heavens above
Feel further away than I ever did before
Feel further than I can take
Dreamin' of you
Is all I do
But it's driving me insane

Everything in the way
Is so shy like the day
In queer and unusual form
Spirals of golden haze here and there in a blaze
Like beams of light in a storm

Maybe you're here
And maybe you weren't
Maybe you touched somebody and got burned
The silent sun has got me on the run
Burning a hole in my brain
I'm dreamin' of you
That's all I do
But it's driving me insane
