And I Have Seen The World Of Dreams
Lyricist:Lou Handman (e.presley/jordanaires Only- Manuf/released By Rca), Roy Turk
And I have seen the world of dreams And, fresh flown through the trees Then dropped off at the curb alive Have seen the world awake And I don't know which I deserve
So when sleep nightly comes to me With all of these warm blankets piled on my back I'll hike to see the church of dreams Where all of the shutters are painted black
And it seems like that's real Until the time I awake And at midnight the moonlight reflects As the lake is shining at me, until night takes it away
There's one world in the distance One world in the way And not one can stay
And I have seen the wood of dreams Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Carved grainless and clean with a sweep of one hand And have been happy with the leaves On my body when laid under land
So when sleep finally comes to me Because it comes for the sleek Like it comes for the lame
I'll sink beneath a weight of dreams So full and complete That I'm pushed from my name
And it seems like that's real until I fall asleep And then we load up the car and drive far To some street where a new life awaits Until day takes it away
There's one world in the distance One world in the way And not one can stay
