Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Go ahead with your dreamin'

For what it's worth

Or you'll be stricken bound

Kickin' up dirt

For when it's dark

You never know what the night it may bring

[Verse 2]

Go ahead with your schemin'

And shop at home

You'll find treasure

While cookin' up bones

But the knife is sharp

You'd better watch that you don't cut your hands

[Verse 3]

And they covered up the sun

Until the birds had flown away

And the fishes in the sea

Had gone to sleep

[Verse 4]

And they covered up the sun

Until the birds had flown away

And the fishes in the sea

Had gone to sleep

[Verse 5]

Go ahead with your dreamin'

For what it's worth

Or you'll be stricken bound

Kickin' up dirt

For when it's dark

You never know what the night it may bring

[Verse 6]

Go ahead with your schemin'

And shop at home

You'll find treasure

While cookin' up bones

But the knife is sharp

You'd better watch that you don't cut your hands

[Verse 7]

And they covered up the sun

Until the birds had flown away

And the fishes in the sea

Had gone to sleep

[Verse 8]

And they covered up the sun

Until the birds had flown away

And the fishes in the sea

Had gone to sleep

[Verse 9]

Holy Moses our hearts are screaming

Souls are lifting only dreaming

We'll be waiting some are praying

For a time when no one's cheatin'

[Verse 10]

The sunlight rising over the horizon

Just a distant memory the dawn chorus

Birds singing bells ringing

In our hearts in our minds...

[Verse 11]

And they covered up the sun

Until the birds had flown away

And the fishes in the sea

Had gone to sleep

[Verse 12]

And they covered up the sun

Until the birds had flown away

And the fishes in the sea

Had gone to sleep
