Little Feat - Livin' On Dreams lyrics

Barrère-Fuller-Payne-Tackett Another grey dawn another day gone Deeper in debt as the night draws in There's something inside me Rings like a melody Pullin' my heart like a frozen wind Seems like most of my life's spent gettin' by day to day Fendin' off new hard times arrival Little by little I try as the days go by Waitin' around on some kind of luck's revival There's a full moon risin' just about midnight A high tide comin' 'round just about dawn But I know it can't last Livin' on dreams and the shadows they cast Got to be strong One of these days I gotta be gone Been livin' on dreams just a little too long The sleep comes hard and money does too So I wake up worried in the mornin' light As the sun comes through the tears in the window shades It don't seem fair that it has to be such a fight The women keep comin' 'round Spendin' my hard earned pay Bent on the minimization of my survival Been holdin' me down But one fine day Gonna break these chains of denial There's a full moon risin' just about midnight A high tide comin' 'round just about dawn But I know it can't last Livin' on dreams and the shadows they cast Got to be strong One of these days I gotta be gone Been livin' on dreams just a little too long Little by little I try as the days go by To find some way to break these chains of denial There's a full moon risin' just about midnight A high tide comin' 'round just about dawn But I know it can't last Livin' on dreams and the shadows they cast Got to be strong One of these days I gotta be gone Been livin' on dreams just a little too long
