The Wallflowers - It's A Dream lyrics

It's a whale, it's a whale where the valley once was Can tell by her head her tail's coming up Long as a train, taller than a bus Must have come with the river when the levee went bust It's a heart, it's a heart that's beating in your chest Going thump, thump, rattle in your long summer dress There's a hole in the bottom of the boat that we get Got to row through tomorrow and we're gonna get wet It's the deal we don't quit till the other one does I can't let you sleep any longer my love You look I'll be lying here just where I was It's a dream, it's a dream girl you're gonna wake up It's a dream, it's a dream girl you're gonna wake up I can hear, I can hear them chanting in the woods On their hind legs walking on little swine hooves Singing hi-ho silver here we come here we go We've come for the women and to get your manhood I can see, I can see them coming from the west See the embers on the tips of hand rolled cigarettes Moving from their posts with their long bayonets We can't stop fighting till we know God exists It's the deal we don't quit till the other one does I can't let you sleep any longer my love You can't leave me here to fend for both of us It's a dream, it's a dream girl you're gonna wake up It's a dream, it's a dream girl you're gonna wake up It's the deal we don't quit till the other one does I can't let you sleep any longer my love You look I'll be lying here just where I was You got to wake up You got to wake up It's the deal we don't quit till the other one does I can't let you sleep any longer my love You can't leave me here alone to fend for all of us You got to wake up You got to wake up It's a dream, it's a dream girl you're gonna wake up It's a dream, it's a dream girl you're gonna wake up
