Barenaked Ladies - When You Dream lyric
Ringtone: Send When You Dream Ringtone to your Cell Phone!
A life just begun,
A sleeping new son,
His eyes that roll back in his head.
They flutter and dart
He slows down his heart,
Pictures a world past his bed.
It's hard to believe
As I watch you breathe,
Your mind drifts and weaves.
When you dream,
What do you dream about?
When you dream,
What do you dream about?
Do dream about music
Or mathematics
Or planets too far for the eye?
Do you dream about Jesus
Or quantum mechanics
Or angels who sing lullabies?
His fontanel pulses
With lives that he's living
And memories he'll learn to ignore.
And when it is closed,
He already knows
He's forgotten all knew him before.
But when sleep sets in,
History begins
But the future will win.
When you dream
What do you dream about?
When you dream
What do you dream about?
Are they colored or black and white?
Yiddish or English
Or languages not yet conceived?
Are they silent or boisterous?
Do you hear noises
Just loud enough to be perceived?
Do you hear Del Shannon's runaway playing
on transistor radio waves?
With so little experience,
Your mind not yet cognizant, or
are you wise beyond your few days?
When you dream,
What do you dream about?
When you dream,
What do you dream about?
When you dream,
What do you dream about?
When you dream,
What do you dream about?
When you dream,
What do you dream about?
