lyrics

i could live my whole life as a dream
and so it seems i may
i could slowly fade away
and never look back, i'd be okay

you could talk about the president
what went wrong, should we repent
you could tell me how things should be
but it doesn't matter that much to me

i should've known, i couldn't wait
the line was cast
i was weak, i took the bait
i couldn't last

so nice to be upon this rock
punching the hours on the clock
any man can tell you where his mind goes
when the lights are off and the doors are closed

gently down the stream
life is but a dream

i should've known, i couldn't wait
the line was cast
i was weak, i took the bait
i couldn't last

gently down the stream
life is but a dream
