No Good Dreaming Kind

Dreamed I was a good man, I could do no wrong

Always kept my word, my hands were tough, man, my back was strong

But I was wrong, I was wrong

I dreamed I could be famous, folks would want to hear me sing

Yeah, they'd travel around from town to town, to hear my agenda ring

But that ain't me, that ain't me

Dreams are meant to chase, and chasin's meant for fools

And fools are meant for livin' hard and breakin' all the rules

Rules bring comfort to the old and keep the younger ones in line

But lines are made for crossin' by the no good dreamin' kind

I dreamed that you still loved me, stood right by my side

Right through thick and thin, rich or poor until the day we died

But that ain't right, that ain't right

I dreamed that you were happy, with a love, precious and new

I hope he loves you half as much, half as much as I wanted to

I really do, I hope it's true

Dreams are meant to chase, and chasin's meant for fools

And fools are meant for livin' hard and breakin' all the rules

Rules bring comfort to the old and keep the younger ones in line

But lines are made for crossin' by the no good dreamin' kind

One day when I woke up, I found myself alone

In an empty house, with no one around, could hardly call this a home

Since you been gone, since you been gone

Dreams are meant to chase, and chasin's meant for fools

And fools are meant for livin' hard and breakin' all the rules

Rules bring comfort to the old and keep the younger ones in line

But lines are meant for crossin' by the no good dreamin' kind
