Waiting on a Dream

Waiting On A Dream - Lee Ranaldo

Coming in for Colorado

Taking a late night jet out of the snow

I need to see your face tomorrow

Just an hour or two before you go

Hangin' around four days and nights

I'm coming back to see your point of view

I can see through all the glitter and baubles

That's the reason now I'm coming home to you

I'm leaving town so you better take hold

I'm steppin' out for the river of old

Everybody's hustling for a place on the screen

But I'll hang around and share your dream

That's right

They say time always runs like a river

Tell me then kindly

How come I ain't got no time

Risks and illusions tempt me to hold on

Hey brother can you spare a dime

I'm hanging around wherever you go

I'm headed down to the river of old

I'm tryin' to step out of this scene

I'd like to step into your dream

I know exactly what you mean:

I know the secrets that you dream

Every street I walk alone

Every girl up on a throne

Every glad hand full of gold

Trying to reach down into your soul

Hanging around the secrets that you

Hanging around with saints and sinners

Losers winners I try to pay no mind

I can see thru all that shakes and quivers

Every loveless soul strung out on the line

There's a golden light in the sky tonight

Where 10 000 soldiers stand with feet of clay

Secrets to be told will keep for the night

And we will soon be on our way

I'm leaving town so take a good hold

Carry me back to the rivers of old

It's a blood red curse that'll set you free

Standing in the snow waiting on a dream

I know the secrets that you need:

You know exactly what I mean

I know the secrets that you dream:

Your upside down and painted green

I know the secrets that you need:

I'm tryin' to climb out of this scene
