And what do we want from each other? Tell me your dreams What do they mean? Where do we go? Nobody knows And I try and I try And it tears me all up inside The birds outside my window Want to drive this stupid song into my head

Tell her about it You got to tell her about it Tell her everything you feel Tell her all your crazy dreams Let her know you need her Let her know how much she means I don't want to see you let a good thing

By American Dreams 'Cause I'm not sleeping in American Dreams American lies We're trying to see through the smoke in our eyes So give me the truth Don't tell me your lies 'Cause it's harder to breathe When you're buried alive

This is my first affair so please be kind Handle my heart with care, oh, please be kind This is all so grand my dreams are on parade If you'll just understand they'll never ever fade So tell me your love's sincere oh please be kind Tell me I needn't

Tell 'em that is my birthday When I party like that Blow your dreams, blow your dreams, blow your dreams away with me Every night's my birthday They don't know, so it's okay Jazz it up, jazz it up Happy as can be, falling into you, falling into me How do

No, you don't know me You give your hand to me and then you say hello And I can hardly speak, my heart is beating so And anyone could tell, you think you know me well But you don't know me No you don't know the one who dreams of you at night And longs to

So tell me what I gotta do to win you over You'll never have to wonder if you need another You'll never have to wonder if I understand And every time you reach for me you'll find a hand out, oh I would dare Feed your dreams And starve your fears Light

I know you got away, I know you got away All my time is consumed with your face I tell myself that this feeling will fade Na na na na na na na And I know, and I know, and I know that it won't I've seen you in my dreams You turn them to gold and shatter

And there go you How much for your soul and uh Selling me dreams and telling me things you knew You got what I want I got what you need I hate rich niggas goddammit Cause I ain't never had a lot dammit Know you felt the shit just now

We won't run and hide I'm passing over you like a satellite So catch me if I fall That's why you stick to your game plans and party lives But at night we're conspiring by candlelight We are the orphans of the American dreams Oh shine your light on me
