Lyrics
I set a watch
For 5 o'clock
I think of trees and rivers
As I'm drifting off
I pinch my wrist
(Just to tell where I am)
I get a twinge
(Seems as real as it can)
But I remain and so I know
The rest is up to me
At night
The sunlight beats upon my skin
In here I see everything
And until the morning comes
I feel it
All my life I tried
To find the time to make believe
But now as certain as the seasons
I know real life will get in between
If I never get to decide my reality
At least I see how it could be
When I get round to sleeping (sleeping)
Dreaming (dreaming)
Works for me
And though my soul
(Lets me do what I want)
Is pretty bold
(In a place I belong)
From time to time my grip'll slip
And I just lose control
Then awake I freeze
But nothing in my head can hurt me
However real it seems
All my life I tried
To find the time to make believe
But now as certain as the seasons
I know real life will get in between
If I never get to decide my reality
At least I see how it could be
When I get round to sleeping (sleeping),
Dreaming (dreaming)
Get round to sleeping (sleeping),
Dreaming (dreaming)
Oh
