So long I'll see you on another fine night
So long I'll see you on another fine night
Where the whole band is playing

Now I'm here without a calling
Calling out to the quiet running
But they're off stepping into the sea

Falling asleep
All these people trying to get in our dreams, get in our dreams
Falling asleep
All these people trying to get in our dreams, get in our dreams

It's sentimental the way you wave him away
It's sentimental the way you wave him away
Oh darling, here's hoping
God I wanna stay up late and say it
(I don't swim I'm an understander)
God I wanna stay up late and say it
(I'm on my own, I'm a lonely lander)
Just to say it, to say it
(I won't go with the river's flow)

Falling asleep
All these people trying to get in our dreams, get in our dreams
Falling asleep
All these people trying to get in our dreams, get in our dreams

It's sentimental the way you wave him away
(tidal wave won't break my window)
Sentimental the way you wave him away
(I'll tidy up and hide the water)
Oh darling, here's hoping
(so they won't find out what's moving me)
God I wanna stay up late and say it
(cleaning up and smiling broader)
-the wolves are crying the old folks' folly-
God I wanna stay up late and say it
(flash flood they're getting further)
-and the live ones left behind can't make up their minds-
Just to say it, to say it
(I know I'll make them all turn around)
-they can't wake up they're-

Falling asleep all these people trying to get in our dreams,
Get in our dreams (x4)

Oh, so shine, don't shadow
Oh, over a violin solo
Oh, so shine, don't shadow
Oh, over a violin solo
Oh, so shine, don't shadow
Oh, so shine, don't shadow
