when I met you in the restaurant
you could tell I was no debutante.
you asked me what’s my pleasure,
"a movie or a measure?"
i’ll have a cup of tea and tell you of my dreaming.
dreaming is free.
i don’t want to live on charity.
pleasure’s real or is it fantasy?
reel to reel is living rarity.
people stop and stare at me,
we just walk on by; we just keep on dreaming.
feet feet: walking a two mile.
meet meet: meet me at the turnstile.
i never met him, I’ll never forget him.
dream dream: even for a little while.
dream dream: filling up an idle hour.
fade away, radiate.
i sit by and watch the river flow.
i sit by and watch the traffic go.
imagine something of your very own;
something you can have and hold.
i’d build a road in gold just to have some dreaming.
dreaming is free.
