Richard Thompson - You Dream Too Much lyrics

She came down the stairs in her co*ktail dress She fell on her food like a lioness There was ringing in my ears like an SOS She said, you dream too much If you think I've a thing for you You dream too much and it's going to end bad the boom box was sounding sweet We were dancing to a jungle beat Just when our lips were about to meet She said, you dream too much Who's that girl in your dreams with you You dream too much and it's going to end bad You'll stumble going through life the way that you do I hope I'm somewhere else the day that you do The way that you do... She had a cha**is like an XJS Skull necklace just like a high priestess I thought maybe just one caress She said you dream too much You're dreaming now while I'm talking to you You dream too much and it's going to end bad All my life I've been like this I start thinking of the perfect kiss Velvet dream on an iron fist She said, you dream too much Even this isn't really true You dream too much and it's going to end bad.. --------------------------------------------------------------
