Lyrics
DREAMS
(Dale Allen/Bill Flowerree)
6:00 A.M. FEED THE CAT
CAN'T GET MORE REAL THAN THAT
GRAB A CUP, GAS THE CAR
AS THE SUN SHUTS OFF THE STARS
HER DAYS GO BY AT SIXTY WORDS A MINUTE
SHE LIVES A LIFE WITH NO LIFE IN IT, BUT
DREAMS FILL THE EMPTY SPACES IN HER SOUL
DREAMS SHOW HER THERE ARE PLACES SHE CAN GO
EVERYBODY NEEDS SOMETHING TO BELIEVE
AND SHE BELIEVES IN DREAMS
5:00 O'CLOCK, GO PUNCH OUT
TRY TO PUSH ASIDE THE DOUBT
HER SUBARU IS PACKED TO GO
THE CAT'S THE ONLY ONE SHE'S TOLD
HER CLOSEST FRIENDS SWORE SHE'D NEVER DO IT
SHE'S THE ONLY ONE WHO KNEW THAT
(CHORUS)
ON THE BEACH IN MEXICO
HALF A WORLD AWAY FROM HOME
SHE CLEANS HER BRUSH AND PAINTS THE SCENE
ONE SHE SAW IN
DREAMS, DREAMS
EVERYBODY NEEDS SOMETHING TO BELIEVE
AND SHE BELIEVES IN DREAMS
6:00 A.M. FEED THE CAT
CAN'T GET MORE REAL THAN THAT
