Seems to Be a Dream

We know this time we couldn't resist Because time is time only and it doesn't exist Find me a roadmap that'll lead to the stars It's not like I'll know if I traveled to far Turn off the car on the side of the road Watch the blur of the highway and the dead faces fold I know babe, I know, it's all a dream It seems to be a dream Check beneath the mattress for the dollars you stole To buy yourself a dream to lift you from the hole Hoping that it goes to your mind's eye in a hurry So hurry, strike the match and quickly come to me Wrap yourself all around with sheets with pleats from overuse Try to see if what you're seeing is really true I know babe, I know, it's all a dream It seems to be a dream Slip into sleep, it's the last one for me My friends and enemies gather beneath the tree Blooming flowers pink and green right beside the bed Growing roots into the floorboards and the pillow 'neath my head Swiftly dancing along the sand of the far and distant coast I promise that I plan to visit as a ghost I know babe, I know it's all a dream It seems to be a dream
