Crackin' walls inside my head With a bottle full of rain I promised to the coaster I wouldn't tear it up again Flick a peanut, break a gla** I wish I didn't sleep at Ma** And everything is closin' up And yet again I come in last I saw it in a dream It was another time And everything was blue Everything was fine And you were always there And I could see clear I was always yours You were always mine Rise above it, rise above it, rise above it I see her on the ceiling She's staring down in her gown I had to make allowances Between my love and goin' out Now everything is closing up The last call is well asleep At gigs I danced with a Blue Nun Now heartburn is goin' cheap I saw it in a dream It was another time Everything was true Everything sublime And you were always there And I could see clear I was always yours You were always mine I saw it in a dream It was another time Everything was true Everything sublime And you were always there And I could see clear I was always yours You were always mine Rise above, rise above it I wouldn't tear it up again
