Nanci Griffith - Sweet Dreams Will Come Lyrics
by John StewartI was sleeping, listen Ellie,Dreaming of days yet comeI don't care what you sayI know that those days are sure to comeAnd I'm waking and I'm callingI'm shaking and I'm fallingAnd oh little darlingI wonder when those sweet dreams will comeThere's a hole in the skyThat was made by my right guard last nightAnd then there's you and IAssuring that everything's all rightWe are nursing, pretendingCursing, then defendingAnd yet it's neverendingMakes you wonder when those sweet dreams will comeI'm looking for some loveI guess that's why people buy dogsIs there someone up above?And I wonder is the captain keeping logsI am cursing and I'm prayingNot knowing what we're sayingAnd yet it's everyday 'nI wonder when those sweet dreams will comeI feel like a fireIn the morning when the fire is outI am walking on the wireAnd the wire is what the whole thing is aboutThe pretending is thinningSurrender is winningAnd yet it's beginningTo feel like those sweet dreams will comeThe pretending is thinningSurrender is winningAnd yet it's beginningTo feel like those sweet dreams will comeAnd oh little darlingDon't you wonder when those sweet dreams will come?Sweet dreams will comeSweet dreams will comeSweet dreams will comeSweet dreams will come
