lyrics

I wanna know
Where did the dream you sold me go?
Was here and now it’s gone.

I wanna see
The sign where you said my face would be
A face that looked nothin’ like me.

Was everything you said
like the stories my grandma read by my bed?
I think I’d rather play with my friends instead.

Sit around the table and joke.
Pass the wine, the whiskey, beer and smoke
And just forget the fact that we’re dirt broke

Pay no mind to the latest trends
Just where the next song begins and ends
And just do it again and again and again and again and again

Stroll down the Hudson at night
And share a kiss under the moonlight
Yeah, that sounds alright

I wanna say,
You can keep your big rooms, your bright lights
I’m okay.
I’ll see them down the road someday.
Someday.
