Sometimes I wake with sadness
I walk around with my eyes held open
Go to work for someone else
Wishing I was someplace else
The yellow notes stuck on my wall
Angry people waiting for a call
A thousand hands all pulling at me
A hundred voices all talking to me
And sometimes, I'm lost in a dead world
In a dead world
But when the bell rings,
to the world sings
We're close in on two
I wanna spend some time alone
Lock the door on you
Close in on two
Through the ocean, the stars above
The way you feel when
you're falling in love
A little time is all I need
You know sometimes I just wanna dream
Some days I won't last
On memorandum top dispatch
Plastic plants, a fax machine
Working in this vacant heat
Looking at the walls of a room
I know it's taken my life
Had to stop to talk to people
You know that you don't lie
And sometimes, I'm lost in a dead waltz
In a dead waltz
But when the bell rings,
till the world sings
We're closing in on you
I wanna spend some time alone
Lock the door on you
Closing in on you
Through the ocean, the stars above
The way you feel when
you're falling in love
A little time is all I need
You know sometimes I just wanna dream
And I can't go on,
and the day goes on
I'll tell you one more time
Before I get you out of my mind
Now you've got someone
who'll breathe again
To feel the summer before it ends
The sky clear over on the hill
The door is locked, you can't get in
The moment when you
know you're free
You know sometimes I just
wanna dream
I just wanna dream
I just want to tell you
