Dreamers Lyrics

You had a busy day today

You got a long night ahead

There's too much on my plate

Too many dreams patiently wait

As you crawl through your life

Watchin' the time roll by

A suitcase full of empty dreams

Sits on a train that never leaves

And you cry how far to San Francisco

When do we walk in Memphis

When do we ride the trains

All the way across the state of Texas

Where d'you think you wanna be?

A ticket for anywhere, one way please

How long are you prepared to wait

Before you jump that rolling freight

And it takes you in your dreams

And your heart thats bursting at the seams

That old train whistle cries for you

You're too late, once again it's passed on through

And you cry how far to San Francisco

When do we walk in Memphis

When do we ride the trains

All the way across the state of Texas

You spend your life

In an old leather office chair

That's been passed down

From the last guy

Who never made it anywhere

What'll you do, when you found that place

Where the sun shine's heavy and the rain falls less

Will you miss the life that was

Dead-end streets and dead-end jobs

Or do you see another dream

That only dreamers see

You wait for another rolling freight

That never comes

And it just lets you know who you are

And then you still cry how far to San Francisco

When do we walk in Memphis

When do we ride the trains

All the way across the state of Texas

How far to San Francisco

When do we walk in Memphis

When do we ride the train

All the way across the state of Texas
