I fell asleep this afternoon
You could say the day was wasted
But that’s just a simple point of view
You don’t know the dreams I’ve tasted
You don’t know the dreams I’ve tasted
Can’t see my dreams
Life’s a strange and wondrous game
The rules can take some getting used to
Every day they seem to change
Till we second guess what we do
I think we’d better think again
I fell asleep this afternoon
You could say the day was wasted
But that’s just a simple point of view
You don’t know the dreams I’ve tasted
You don’t know the dreams I’ve tasted
Can’t see my dreams
We can talk of love and loss
We’re always searching for a meaning
Till we think we’ve got it sussed
But it’s just the way we’re leaning
I think we’d better think again
I fell asleep this afternoon
You could say the day was wasted
But that’s just a simple point of view
You don’t know the dreams I’ve tasted
You don’t know the dreams I’ve tasted
Can’t see my dreams
All I hear are empty words railing at the situation
Saying everything must change but there is no explanation
But every vacuum must be filled
So beware of what you’re wishing
You may wake up to find that it’s the devil you’ve been kissing
I fell asleep this afternoon
You could say the day was wasted
But that’s just a simple point of view
You don’t know the dreams I’ve tasted
I fell asleep this afternoon
You could say the day was wasted
But that’s just a simple point of view
You don’t know the dreams I’ve tasted
I fell asleep this afternoon
I fell asleep this afternoon
