A Snow bound siren in the winter dawn
Thers's a blizzard blowing in from off the river
It's ten below below out on these city streets
But the feeling in your heart is even colder
The sunrise screeching down the line
And the fogbanks running out of time
But you won't be here when they creep in tomorrow
You're tired of dreaming someone's elses's dream
When they really don't include you any longer
Miles from home you're sliding down with each day
And you need a woman's love to make you stronger
A Riff Here
And lately you've been having doubts
A voice inside keeps calling out
That someone else's dream don't get you nowhere
So shut the suitcase kiss the year goodbye
Don't let nobody stop you at the doorway
And close the shutters on this empty room
Where these crazy dreams come crawling to devour you
A Riff Here
And head on out across that line
Where she's been waiting all this time
And tell her that you want her there forever
It's still two hours till this plane gets down
Can hardly beat to wait another minute
Your sweet loving babe is all that I need
Darling it's been building up inside of me
A Riff Here
Tonight we'll go and paint this town
We're gonna drink champagne till we both fall down
And we'll find some other crazy dream tomorrow
A Riff ( these are the finger positions, listen to the record to get the beat)
