lyrics

"I had a dream
knew everybody by their name
woke up late again
another version of the same old story
same old night
and in the morning
the pale incandescent light"

His mother said
"My dear a penny for your thoughts"
but that was years ago
and now the flowers start to rot
and die upon the vine
up on the vine with all that wasted time so

He says to me,
"Well I've been thinking - maybe I
was never meant to be
nothing but an ordinary guy
in bed by 8 or 9
8 or 9 every night
every night"

But something's different
You're so distant

He thinks out loud now
eyes royal blue turn robin's egg
he's in a rain cloud
"At least the view is overhead"
or so I though he said
but i may be wrong
I might have misread

But something's different
You're so distant
