Probably Dreamtime

 

There was a time when you were sleeping

But part of you was still awake

And like a thought you came creeping

It was all I could do to keep you at bay

Somewhere baby somehow

We’ll find the switch and throw the power

Sometime probably dreamtime

I’ll meet you in that precious hour

 

I got miles of road behind me

you got the highway up ahead

I got the green lights of your dashboard

On the ceiling above my bed

Somehow, baby somewhere

You’ll pick me up along the road

Sometime, probably dreamtime

There you’ll keep me from the cold

 

Sixteen hours to the east coast, three days to Santa Barbara

Each time across the Heartland you’re getting a little farther

Somewhere down to South Padre, Rosarita once again

Clothes on the floor, back to the door

In the light of your long lost friend

 

I see you sleeping in the moonlight

Your coyotes lying by the door

I used to wonder if I was I crazy

I don’t wonder anymore

 

Somewhere baby somehow

I’ll meet you there along the road

Sometime probably dreamtime

I’ve come to share your heavy load

Somewhere darling somehow

I’ll see you in the light again

Sometime probably dreamtime

I’ll hold you in my arms and then

Somewhere baby somehow

we’ll be back where we belong

Sometime probably dreamtime

somehow I know it won’t be long
