In my dreams, I crawl after you A pathetic man pleading Wondering what I can do The people I can love are few My chest is immutably screaming In my dreams, I crawl after you My love has never been new An eternal sun-ray beaming Wondering what I can do I've long since worn through my shoe The pain of my raw footprint is fleeting In my dreams, I crawl after you Safety and comfort I eschew That you may appreciate my suffering Wondering what I can do Nothing I'd never do for a view An old man tired and muttering In my dreams, I crawl after you Wondering what I can do
