Recurring Dreams She came along the brand new highway paved in the morning after she left she opened the night with a flurry of notes she dashed off for my benefit informing me of her recurring dreams of me yes, she came along the new highway just to invest in a recurring dream of me And oh, I'm so moved I can't ever think of letting go with nothing left to prove I make my way to the show way up on that silver screen flickers the light of her recurring dreams of me I came along the Cannery Row coastline with a heart full of sorrrow and regret for the way our love crumbled to the ground never know who's guilty or innocent but tonight her name is up in marquee lights I've come so far from the coastline just to interpret her recurring dreams tonight And oh, I'm so moved I can't believe I ever let her go with my soul so soothed I make my way to the show where nothing is what it seems she's uncovered the light of her recurring dreams of me And yeah, she's got something to prove with her life split at the seams with the only repair being her recurring dreams that she dreams for me and they scream for me and she bleeds We came along together, to the borderlands with heavy hearts and open minds ready for a way for our love to fill our hands empty but for when they're entwined tonight we'll find the time to share these dreams 'cause we're here at the border trying to set the night right for our recurring dreams Yes, I'm so moved I won't ever again let her go with my colorful mood I take her out the show shining way up on that screen richly hued, her recurring dreams recurring dreams of me "The moon ain't romantic, it's intimidating as hell". -- Tom Waits, 'Bad Liver and a Broken Heart' |

Seriously don't understand the lack of replies to this...so let me give it a good  'cause I think it needs to be seen a bit more..  "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |
