Are You My Dream?
You’re starting to see that Im the only one
Who can see what is real
The mirror is gone from the frame and the frame has no mirror
Which one is here?
Which one is lost?
You look like you could use a little time
You could be a little while
You might want to go somewhere…
You look like the battery is gone
And I don’t blame you
You still have my love
I hear a voice that’s just the same as mine
But a little before time
Telling me what to say
As I look out of my eyes
Is it me or is it just my brain?
Are you my dream?
Are you my dream?
Cause that’s what its starting to seem
Is there a friend that I know
Or am I not a moral person anymore?
Do things touch me the way they did before?
I dont know I can’t recall
I don’t know I’ve seen it all
And I would be the one
If I could be the one
If I could be the one to call
Im never down
Ill see it out
Waiting for it
To go on by
I never mind
Im never lonely
Being the solo
Kind of guy
But I wish that you are here
I haven’t met you yet but I know you so clear
Like a speaker in a hifi system
Right in-front of your ears
I know you’re for real
Got to lay down on the floor and smoke a while
Lost in all of this time
I see myself lying
Flying on the ride
Just like that beer without a friend
In the frame with no mirror I see myself again
Got to pick a record up from Jess
You know he makes them sound the best
Im not going back to you
Or to England
Im no fool
I just met you but I knew
That I couldn’t get no clue in to who you could be
And so I still wait
For the affection
Maybe I’m demented and losing my edge
But lights go red in my mind
Lights go blue behind you
And I don’t know which one is a dream
The battery is me
I see you wanting freedom
I can’t give you freedom
Not without being free
