Dreamer Lyrics by The Dead Tongues

Body of Light

0

There was a dreamer who
Was a friend of mine
Talked about sailing and
Running all the time
Nineteen ninety three
He was seventeen
Ain't it hard having nothing
When you want everything?
There's a change and a stillness
In your eyes
Like looking through a spring
Full of melted ice
Tell me all the stories
You heard out on the wind
The one about survival
The road and its end
Ride on, friend
There was a dreamеr who
Was a friend of mine
Lived in a brick housе
Born in the wrong time
A two room shack
With the windows blacked out
Toward the road
Roof leaked and the lights hummed
Smelled like opium
It was black as the wing
Of a winter night
Taste like potpourri
Felt like paradise
Taught me about karma
And the rolling of the dice
Tell you where to look
But I don't know what you’d find
Everything’s a sandbar
Faded and divine
Heaven’s in the background
Heaven’s in the background (Heaven’s in the background)
Heaven’s in the background (Heaven’s in the background)
Heaven’s in the background (Heaven’s in the background)
Heaven’s in the background
Heaven’s in the background
Heaven’s in the background
Heaven’s in the background
