Dreaming Dreamers Dream

Hey there dreamer
What is it you see
Is it the stars shining brightly
Reflected in your morning tea
Is it deep like the ocean
Which is just like your bathtub
Or shallow like yourself
Somewhere lost inside

Hey there dreamer
What is it you see
Is it your long lost lover
In your cereal bowl
A turbulent tornado
Which you tame with your spoon
And the hands of the gods
Stirring it up again

Hey there dreamer
What is it you see
Is it your first discovery
Of weaving music into a masterpeice
That you see in his eyes
Or that story of 15 years work
That you haven't quite started yet

Hey there dreamer
What is it you see
When you look to the sky
And dig that much deeper in the dirt
Searching for gold where no one goes
Grasping victory tighter and tighter
As you head towards the core.

Hey there dreamer
I don't know what you see
But I see you laying beside me
An empty glass upon the table
An empty bowl alongside it
The spoon hangs lazily
at the edge of the bowl
Occasionally, you glance at me
Then back to the ceiling
Lost in thought
You grip my hand tightly
Lost within

Hey there dreamer
Tell me what you're dreaming
I promise I'm listening
I just look like I'm sleeping
