Girl, I've seen you drift away to another place and time And in those dreams you leave this old world behind Yeah, I know how hard you've been trying In a world that you just ain't buying
All you dreams, so far away now Drifting off with the rest of yours yesterdays, some how Yeah, I know it's hard to keep on fighting Cause I'm a guy who gave up trying
Oh, no, just put'em in your pocket Don't lock'em away I know, you think your heart can't take But there will come a new day
Never mind these old streets, these dusty avenues Never mind the things they might say about you They can talk, but they can never ever hurt you They can never take your dreams away from you
Someday, you will be far from here And all your troubles will have disappeared When you go, girl, don't worry about me Yeah, it's time now to you set yourself free
Oh, no, just put'em in your pocket Don't lock'em away I know, you think your heart can't take But there will come a new day
