Hey, mother, father, sister Hey, come back, tryin', believein' Hey, mother, father, dreamer She sits alone, an empty stare A mother's face she wears Where did she go wrong, The fight is gone Lord help this broken home Don't you know that I'm alive for you

I'm on my way Home sweet home Tonight tonight Just set me free You know I'm a dreamer But my heart's of gold I had to run away high So I wouldn't come home low Just when things went right

Long for the stranger you know so well. Long for the sailor, beneath the skies Long for the white dove, no matter where she flies Pray for the soldier, who's wounded bad Pray for the dreamer, he's still so sad Pray for the stranger you know so well.

We are the sleepers, we bite our tongues We set the fire and we let it burn Through the dreamers, we hear the hum They say come on, come on, let's go I know that it's a waste of time Chasing in the dark But keep me in your clouded mind 'Til time ignites

Long for the stranger you know so well. Long for the sailor, beneath the skies Long for the white dove, no matter where she flies Pray for the soldier, who's wounded bad Pray for the dreamer, he's still so sad Pray for the stranger you know so well.

All alone at the end of the evening and the bright lights have faded to blue I was thinkin' about a woman who might have loved me and I never knew You know I've always been a dreamer spent my life running round And it's so hard to change can't seem to

Don't know much about love But it sounds easy Why do you make it so hard? Maybe I'm a dreamer Don't know much about But together we can run In my face I feel the sun In my eyes you're still the one There ain't no need to be afraid

I'm on my way Home sweet home Tonight tonight Just set me free You know I'm a dreamer But my heart's of gold I had to run away high So I wouldn't come home low Just when things went right

I will survive and be the one who's stronger I will not beg you to stay I will move on and you should know I mean it Wild horses run in me I'm a dreamer But it's hard to sleep when your head's not in it I've been restless 'Cause you disappeared and

I'm on my way Home sweet home Tonight tonight Just set me free You know I'm a dreamer But my heart's of gold I had to run away high So I wouldn't come home low Just when things went right
