The Dreamer

(album: Solitaire - 1973)

Lord, it's awful
Jeez, it's lonely
Just hanging around
I have always been a dreamer
Thinking of you
But what can I do?

I had nothing
You had nothing
But we had a dance
Such a dance
Since I've always been a dreamer
I took a chance
Then I watched you dance away
What can I say?
It always ends this way

When I thought that
I'd found something
It seemed to just slip away
Slip away
I have always been a dreamer
So I'll try again
I just can't let it end
Oh, what would I do?
But, live in my dreams with you

Stars above
The world seems to push
And shove you away from me
Darling, darling can't you see?
This is my plan
I want to be your man
I really hope you understand

God, I'm tired
Man, it's useless
Just waiting around
I have always been a dreamer
Wasting my time
Dreaming my life with you
It's useless it seems
But, I live here in my dreams
With you

Lord it's awful
I'm so tired
Useless waiting
Waiting for you
I'm so lonely
I'm blue, girl
