Lyrics:
I had the mind of a boy,
But now I'm a man, ain't got no mind at all,
When I was in my teens I had my share of dreams,
But now I'm a man, ain't got
time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create
A dream
on the couch there
Can this girl be really here
She seems to know by sheer intuition how I landed in this condition
Or does she know me the way I think
dream
I'm not suggesting that you fly with me
Well here's a dose of some reality, you're swinging at a change-up
Boy you better shape up, here comes
you took me to St. Louis later on down the river
A freighter said she's been here but she's gone, boy, she's gone
I found her trail in Memphis but she
been kissed
Never been kissed by a lady called Amy
You're far out, you're fab and insane
A woman of the world, it's quite plain
My dad told me Amy's
Far from the crowded city
Where flowers pretty caress the stream
Cozy to hide in, to live side by side in
Don't let it apart in my dream
Picture
dreams of Caprices
Drove by the teachers, even more by polices
How'd he get the cash? The day his father passed away
Left him with a lil' somethin',
of the good times and
All of my fat lines
Upstaging a climaxing dream, yeah
'Cause if it's all right to
Be your good time boy
If it's all right, be your good
You said you wouldn't leave when you sang me your song
You took me by the hand and the night felt so long
I need you again
I will find my
Dream boy
stands there smilin' back at me
So I confess my sins to the preacher
About the love I've been prayin' to find
Is there a brown eyed boy in my future, yeah
the suit has just bought a new car
From the profit he's made on your dreams
But today you just read that the man was shot dead
By a gun that didn't make
ol' smile
As wide as the Rio grande?
Oh, with you I am
(Sing it with me tonight, here we go, come on)
Strong as an oak
But soft like leather
A small boy by the hand
The three of them were dressed in rags
And thinner than air
And all six eyes stared fixedly on you
[Chorus]
The father's eyes
and a satchel of gold
Then next to the graveyard by the old oak tree
On a dark foggy night at a quarter to three
She was ready to go, but where was he?
a crazy heart, but I was born to lose it
Married to a dream with a mistress named music
No hope and squarely solitary
Enough whiskey and Coke, boys
and fear
And so we walk from year to year
Believing in each other as we do
Bravely marching forward two by two
Boys and girls like you and me
Walk
My love is colder than black marble by the
Sea.
My heart is older than the cold oak tree.
I am the flash of silver in the sun.
When you see me
handsome and nice
But I took her advice and passed him by
Years have passed and don't look
Like love's gonna give me a second try
Boy the look on your
handsome and nice
But I took her advice and passed him by
Years have passed and don't look
Like love's gonna give me a second try
Boy the look on your
my way, three decks up away, oak wood on the floor
I am on an island of dreams
I am on an island of dreams
Step inside, rusty spikes pop-up
My heart
13 crows in a dead oak tree

she ain't really slick
I'm really like covid I'm sick with the shits
Driving down the street and we out in oak ridge
Fuck all your feelings I'm burning

The lead batter, my hits make ya frame shatter
Watch me now! Just begun like Jimmy Castor
