Ben Harper, Cody Simpson - It’s A Dream lyrics

In the morning when I wake up
And listen to the sound
Of the birds outside on the roof
I try to ignore what the paper says
And I try not to read all the news
And I'll hold you if you had a bad dream
And I hope that it never comes true
'Cause you and I been through
So many things together
And the sun starts climbing the roof

It's a dream, only a dream
And it's fading now
Fading away, only a dream
Just a memory, without anywhere to stay

The Red River stills flows
Through my home town
Rollin', tumblin', on it's way
Swirling around the old bridge pylons
Where a boy fishes the morning away
His bicycle leans on an old oak tree
While the cars rumble over his head
An aeroplane leaves a trail in
An empty blue sky
And the young birds call out to be fed

It's a dream, only a dream
And it's fading now
Fading away, only a dream
Just a memory, without anywhere to stay

An old man walks along on the sidewalk
Sunglasses and an old Stetson hat
The four winds blow the back
Of his overcoat away
As he stops with the policeman to chat
And a train rolls out of the station
That was really somethin' in it's day
Picking up speed on the
Straight prairie rails
As it carries the passengers away

It's gone, oonly a dream
And it's fading now
Fading away, only a dream
Just a memory, without anywhere
It's a dream, only a dream
And it's fading now
Fading away, only a dream
Just a memory, without anywhere to stay
