Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer
But can you put your hands in your head, oh no
I said dreamer, you're nothing but a dreamer
But can you put your hands in your head, oh no
I said boy, what a day, a year, a life it is
You know, well you know you're happy coming to you
Now there's not a lot I can do
Dreamer, you stupid little dreamer
So now you put your head in your hands, oh no
I said boy, what a day, a year, a life it is
You know, well you know you're happy coming to you
Now there's not a lot I can do
If I could have something
If I could see something
You can see anything you want, boy
If I could be someone
You can be anyone, silent rain, boy
Well, if I could do something
You can do something
If I could do anything
Then you do something
Dreamer
Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dreamer
Dreamer
Nothing but a dreamer
Dreamer
Can you put your hands in your head
