Who's Been Passing Dreams Around?

(альбом: New Songs For Old Friends - 1973)

Billy chased the diamonds in the mountain stream
Shivered through the night beside the fire
Spent his life chasing after just a dream
Died proclaiming hope was never higher

And Cynthia chased heaven on here dancing toes
Dreaming swans, batons and bright bouquets
Now she does the cleaning in her dancing clothes
Now the old Victrola seldom plays

Oh, who's passing dreams around this morning bright and early
Might be better if he stayed in bed
Maybe he ought to let us be, find something else to do
God help me I've been dreaming too

Leroy he liked racing he was doing well
Folks who knew said he was rising fast
Lost control, you know his car blew all to hell
Now he's down on the corner pumping gas

Oh, who's passing dreams around this morning bright and early
Might be better if he stayed in bed
Maybe he ought to let us be, find something else to do
God help me I've been dreaming too

Yes, who's passing dreams around this morning bright and early
Might be better if he stayed in bed
Maybe he ought to let us be, find something else to do
Because, God help me, I've been dreaming too
God help me, I've been dreaming too
