The Dreamer

I think I’d like San Francisco

I could live there one day

But I get the feeling

I’d be dreaming of LA

I heard when it rains in Vancouver

It’s more depressing than the snow

That falls in perfect patterns

On the roof of my family home

They say the grass is always greener

They’re not wrong, they say the dreamer

Is always greater than their dream

You look at me with your kind demeanour

And I know what they mean

Wanna climb the tallest mountain

Sit on top of the world

But god I’d miss the ocean

Watching waves crash on the shore

And it’s nice to be alone

But I don’t know about forever

Maybe I’d feel better

Knowing someone’s down the hall

They say the grass is always greener

They’re not wrong, they say the dreamer

Is always greater than their dream

You look at me with your kind demeanour

And I know what they mean

I thought of him this morning

He looked so pretty in the picture

Memories they flicker

Make you miss what isn’t real

They say the grass is always greener

They’re not wrong, they say the dreamer

Is always greater than their dream

You look at me with your kind demeanour

And I know what they mean
