Dwight Yoakam - Dreams Of Clay Lyrics
I'd been building hopes so longHoney, I must have lost sight of what went wrong'Cause in sorrow's blinding light todayBaby, it looks like my dreams were made of clay.Years of yearning spent for youHoney, I know now were the cravings of a foolI guess your wants just slipped awayAnd baby, it looks like my dreams were made of clay.I knew love could toss you downAn' leave you there to crawl aroundBut never thought that was a fall we'd make.Getting up was nothing newThe kind of thing hearts learn to doBut knowing how doesn't mean it's easy to take.So I'll forget aboutPlans we had for me and youAnd dwell on thoughts lonely lives pursuePraying memories don't stay'Cause baby, it looks like our dreams were made of clay.--- Instrumental ---I knew love could toss you downAn' leave you there to crawl aroundBut never thought that was a fall we'd make.Getting up was nothing newThe kind of thing hearts learn to doBut knowing how doesn't mean it's easy to take.So I'll forget aboutPlans we had for me and youAnd dwell on thoughts lonely lives pursuePraying memories don't stayBaby, it looks like our dreams were made of clay.Yeah baby, it looks like our dreams were made of clay...
