Daryl Hall Dreamtime
I saw you standing and I felt your rage
Like a dark cloud on a crowded stage
You were talking through the smoke in your fantasy
I know you girl
I know what to believe.
Maybe things ain't been so good at home
And the people that you love never cared at all
You wanna run away
don't care where you go
You wanna run away
that's all you know.
Believe it's alright to fantasize
And say the words you think will satisfy me
But you know better than I
'cause you know what's a lie.
You're living in dreamtime
baby
it's time to wake up.
You're living on dreamtime
baby
it's time to shape up.
In your dream it's overcast
Rain comes down moving your way fast
You wanna run away
don't care where you go
You wanna run away
that's all you know.
You turn in a corner and you see a door
Walk on through
throw yourself on the floor
When you're looking up it's no surprise
Standing there is a man with movie star eyes.
You think he's gonna take care of you
The man with the plan that'll see you through
And I say there ain't no way
'cause I know he's a lie.
You're living in dreamtime
baby
it's time to wake up.
You're living on dreamtime
baby
it's time to shape up.
You're living on dreamtime
you wanna run away
You're living on dreamtime
you wanna run away.
You're living in dreamtime
you wanna run away
You're living on dreamtime
you wanna run away.
I never saw anybody fall apart so fast
You're living in the dreamtime
you know it ain't gonna last.
Never saw anybody think she's so right and be so wrong
Living in dreamtime
it's hard to carry on.
