Good Dream

 

All I need is a good dream

‘Cause you’re never never never coming

Back to me

But you hold me like you used to

When I’m too tired to cry anymore

And I fall asleep

 

In the park in the park

Oh on a June day

Smell of cooked corn

Sound of merengue

Little drops of sweat

Beading on your chest

Turn to diamonds

In the slanted sun

 

Don’t be cruel don’t wake me

Well well well well well

All I need is a good dream….

 

Stayed too late

Long past the twilight

Too many young bucks

Bound to be a fight

Somebody licked two shots

But we heard them not

I was wrapped up tight

On the back of your bike

 

Don’t be cruel don’t wake me…

 

I taste your taste

On the tip of my tongue

Where the fireflies blink

And the locusts hum

From the stoop to the stairs

To your tiny bedroom

Streetlights doing

What the moon wouldn’t do

 

Don’t be cruel don’t wake me…
