The Lovers in Your Dreams By: Ray Wylie Hubbard
You are soft to the touch, and things fall upon the ground for you
I am torn and blessed as much, for I cannot not love you cause I do
We are here within our skin, like a coin tossed upon a tambourine
We will soon be gone from all we see, this dream within a dream, within a dream
CHORUS
When you leave your body laying on the bed at night
And you drift away to somewhere like you do
In the morning when you open your eyes
Do the lovers in your dreams wake up too?
Do the lovers in your dreams wake up too?
Instrumental interlude
You are wild within your dreams, and it's dangerous company with me
Perhaps it is as it seems, then again these dark waters run deep
You are lost to my eyes, like a gypsy child on European streets
I hope some day you realize, wallow in the darkness there are thieves
CHORUS
When you leave your body laying on the bed at night
And you drift away to somewhere like you do
In the morning when you open your eyes
Do the lovers in your dreams wake up too?
Do the lovers in your dreams wake up too?
Mandolin solo
Why do I burn if love is kind?, perhaps this is what the poets mean
When they rhythm all those words and dark shades of deep blues and greens
You are soft to the touch, and things fall upon the ground for you
I am torn and blessed as much, for I cannot not love you cause I do
CHORUS
When you leave your body laying on your bed at night
And you drift away to somewhere like you do
In the morning when you open your eyes
Do the lovers in your dreams wake up too?
Do the lovers in your dreams wake up too?
Do the lovers... in your dreams wake up too?
Do the lovers... in your dreams wake up too?
Do the lovers... in your dreams wake up too?
Short mandolin outro
