Dreamer lyrics

I've got a dollar deal

Hidden down in my shoe

So listen friends

I tell you what I'm gonna do

I'm gonna run up the road of mystery

Hangin' by a thread to a fantasy

A background black showing my face

Buried in the image of an empty space

I'm back on my feet, getting no sleep

Makin' it all mine

Give me a chance to follow the bands

Waitin' for the sunshine, yeah

Husslin' my will in a bar downtown

And if it don't work out now

I'll keep movin' around and around

Around and around

Till I'm back on my feet, getting no sleep

Makin' it all mine

Give me a chance to follow the bands

I'm waitin' for the sunshine, yeah

A dreamer, a dreamer

Hangin' around

A dreamer, a dreamer

Trying to hitch a ride

A dreamer, a dreamer

Hangin' around

A dreamer, a dreamer

When I turn my back, you're by my side

Well, I fought my way

Through the back stage door

Staring at my goal

Till my eyes get sore

And working my way through the little I say

Caring no less just the light of the day

A background black showing my face

Buried in the image of an empty space

I'm back on my feet, getting no sleep

Makin' it all mine

Give me a chance to follow the bands

I'm waitin' for the sunshine, yeah

Just a dreamer, dreamer

Hangin' around

A dreamer, a dreamer

Trying to hitch a ride

A dreamer, a dreamer

Hangin' around

A dreamer, a dreamer

When I turn my back, you're by my side, yeah

A dreamer, a dreamer

Hangin' around

A dreamer, a dreamer

Trying to hitch a ride

Dreamer, dreamer

Hangin' around

Dreamer, dreamer

Dreamer, dreamer

Dreamer, dreamer
