lyrics

I dreamt of you last Tuesday
Polished loafers, leather suitcase
Wheeling down a cracked sidewalk
Cleanly shaven with a silk tie on

Fiddling with your boutonniere
Blue eyes sparkling in the mornin’s glare
Sprigs of oak leaf turned orange

Curling softly round your chin
And you’ve been
To the bottom of a wishing well

I dreamt of you in Venice
Laughing and silhouetted
Purple with perfectly freckled
Cheeks aglow and hair disheveled

Please tell me did you find it fun to be
a dandelion’s Wish for the evening
please tell me are you blind enough to see

burnin’ like a candle's light
then the night
At the bottom of a wishing well
