Neil Young - It’s a Dream lyrics
[Neil Young - It’s a Dream lyrics]
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 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
It's only a dream just a memory
Without anywhere to stay
The red river stills flows
Through my hometown
Rollin' and tumblin' on it's way
Swirling around the old bridge pilings
Where a boy fishes the morning away
His bicycle leans on an oak tree
While the cars rumble over his head
An airplane 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
It's only a dream just a memory
Without anywhere to stay
An old man walks along the sidewalk
With sunglasses and an old Stetson hat
Fall 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
Pickin' up speed on the
Straight prairie rails
As it carries the passengers away
It's gone it's only a dream
And it's fading now fading away
Only a dream just a memory
Without anywhere to stay it's a dream
Only a dream and it's fading now
Fading away it's only a dream
Just a memory without anywhere to stay
It's a dream it's only a dream
And it's fading now fading away
