Come now through all of it, downtown and tenement Through dark clouds. all circling our house, like a tourniquet The front door splinters in, you come down the hall, unfaltering Your lips licked and shimmering, leaning in and i'm vanishing I close my eyes And you arrive But oh it's just a dream, it's just a dream But it's just a dream until you see it happening In the plaza after work I saw you rise up out of your collared shirts On the horizon there was another world We left the phantom hand and we ran for her I close my eyes And we're aligned And that's a blinding light But oh it's just a dream, it's just a dream, it's just a dream, But it's just a dream until you see it happening And then it changes everything Couldn't we make, couldn't we make, couldn't we make it? Just like we wanted, just like we need it? Why can't we, just like a dream? Who says we can't. who says we can't. who says we shouldn't? Who says we couldn't make it just like we love it? Why can't we. just like a dream? But oh it's just a dream
