When the morning sun
streaks across my room
and i've waken up
from another dream of you
when i'm on the road
once again it seems
all i've left behind
is a chain of broken dreams
[refrain]
But you know i love you
yes i love you
oh i love you
How i wish that love
was all we need to live
what a life we'd have
cause i've got so much to give
but it seems so wrong
deep inside my heart
that the dollar sign
should be keeping us apart
[refrain]
And if i could only find my way back to the time
when the problems of this life of mine didn't cross our minds
all the answers could be found in children's nursery rhymes
i'd come running back to you
i'd come running back to you
But you know we can't
live on dreams alone
and to pay the rent
i must leave you all alone
though i made my choice
many years ago
now this traveling life
is the only one i know
Refrain (two times)
