DREAMS OF THE EARTH

You’re cool ‘cause you’re old and you’re worn in

I’m cool ‘cause I know what that’s worth

We’re fools and we’ve both been born into

The same old Dreams of the Earth

And I know who I am

I know who I’m not

If Love gave the command,

I’d give it a shot

Oh Baby, I’ve got a secret

You can ask me if you really need to know

I’m trying hard to keep it

But you can read and I can’t help but show

And I know who I am

I know who you’re not

If Love gave the command,

I’d give it a shot

Now I’ve got Tommy on my right flank

Adam on my left

I’ve got a cloak around my shoulders

And I’m feeling less bereft

But in case you hadn’t noticed,

I always sleep alone

Cause something about you sounds like…. Home

I just keep on reading the papers

By now I’ve got a PhD in the Blues

‘Cause everybody’s rattling their sabers

For the love they want but will not learn to choose

You’re cool ‘cause you’re old and you’re worn in

I’m cool ‘cause I know what that’s worth

We’re fools and we’ve both been sworn into

The same old Dreams of the Earth
