The Only Dream I Ever Had

I'm waking up from

The only dream I ever had

Wasting mornings

Trying to understand

Sometimes it feels like

The sun's not setting at all

It's the world that's rolling backwards

Like the credits in a movie

And I can't quite catch the name

Of the actress who plays Susie

And I don't want to go home

But the picture house is empty

I'm waking up from

The only dream I ever had

Wasting mornings

Trying to understand

The orchestra is homesick

The Mozart's getting old

What the violins would give to see

Their lovers and their wives

Maybe one day they'll write a pop song

'Bout other people's lives

I'm waking up from

The only dream I ever had

Wasting mornings

Trying to understand
