Thought I was laying in the gutter in Milk cartons and bones But I was standing on a mountain top Looking over your homes Thought I was laying in my garden with My hands deep in soil But I was there on an island Shooting flares at you both Thought I was soothing like a violin Confessing new rain But I was piping like a trumpet Frantic but faint Thought I was built like a building's built On concrete and stone I realized I'm just a hack actor Finished playing my role You're reading my thoughts Dreams old men dreams It's just like when we were kids We'd lay around wondering We try to listen to what they said Thought I was writing for a hundred hours Looking straight into me But I was reading on the newspaper obituary Thought I was nervous like mail man Reading your letters dear But I was at our anniversary Toasting thirty years You're reading my thoughts Dreams old men dream It's just like when we were kids We'd lay around wondering We try to listen to what they say x2 Push my piano outside I don't care x2 Meet the media black sky I don't care x2 The neighbors will complain Let them stare x2 Who knows where the time goes I don't care x2 What would you think of me if I told you I haven't slept in weeks I've been up chasing my childhood with a pen These are dreams old men dream
