Dreams

He's been tired, tired of the way she holds him down
But he's too worn out to ever say how he really feels
So he goes day by day and nothing ever happens
And she hopes nothing will but she knows he'll never be happy

And he knows he can't pretend anymore
She thinks he fine but he dreams at night, of so much more

And he dreams alright, dreams about the day he can leave this life
But the time's not right, this town is everything that he's seen
So now tonight he's packing up he's moving away
And for the first time ever nothing's gonna get in his way

So he drives all night nothing frightens him anymore
And at the first sunlight he stops the car and opens the door
And the tears they come, deeper now than in the past
It's like his first sunrise and nothing ever happened so fast

And she knows that's he's really gone for good
Back at home all she can do is wish that she could

And she dreams alright, dreams about the day she can leave this life
But the time's not right, this town is everything that she's seen
So now tonight she's packing up he's moving away
And for the first time ever nothing's gonna get in her way

And you dream alright, dream about the day you can leave this life
But the time's not right, this town is everything that you've seen
So now tonight you can pack up and move away
And for the first time ever nothing's gonna get in your way
