I’ve lived so many dreams
That I woke up in a nightmare
The road howls silly songs
Whom the moon is refrain
I went at Tesco’s under my house
So tired I couldn’t find
The reason why I was there
I saw so many things that I don’t know how can I sleep at night
Is the morning blue a just fine?
While the levee lifts and the water flows
I spent another rise
Wondering what if I was really here
Instead of
Keeping my head away
And another day’s gone
Waiting for the miracle
In the park of my dreams I’m lying
As I was back in ‘95
I went at the disco under the bridge
There were flowers, there was a fridge
But I was cool standing there
Because there was a friend of mine
Handing me some
Mexican food and French wine
While the levee lifts and the water flows
I spent another night
Wondering what if I was really here
‘cause I’ve got
The summer in my head
And a winter in my heart
Waiting for the miracle
In the park of my dreams I’m lying
As I was in my father’s arms
I live now.
