Album: Middle Brother
Early in the morning, too hungover to go back to sleep
Every sound is amplified, every light so dizzying
Listen for a while to the neighbors having sex
Wishing I could lay my aching head upon your breast
Can't I dream another dream?
Can't I close my eyes and wander back to sleep?
But I'm daydreaming about you
I know that it's wrong
That I'm daydreaming about you
Yes, I've been daydreamin' for so long
A bloody mary afternoon, waste my time out in the sun
Hum myself some melodies, baby I could sing you one
Maybe I could find you sitting down at the café
Maybe I could join you at your table today
Can't I just get what I want?
Can't I be the man that steals away your heart?
But I'm daydreaming about you
I know that it's wrong
That I'm daydreaming about you
I've been daydreaming for so long
Hell, I've been daydreaming for so long
Later in the evening, take the bus down to see the show
You'll be behind the bar, I'll get a beer, leave the tip and lay low
I'm just a kid that gets his drinks from you
That stands around and doesn't have a clue
Can't I hold you close to me?
Can't I ever say to you just what I mean?
But I'm daydreaming about you
I know that it's wrong
That I'm daydreaming about you
Yes, I've been daydreaming for so long
Oh yeah, I've been daydreamin' for so long.
