I had a dream, an awful dream
You were lying next to me
But I was caught in a rushing stream
You held my hand from the bank
"I had a nice time, I had a nice time"
That's what you said when you let me go
Then I drifted off far below
And I closed my eyes
Alarm goes off at six o'clock
To fall asleep was hard enough
If you see that dog that's barking, tell him off
Even if he never changes
Have a nice day, have a nice day
Though I wish that you could stay
I gotta get up anyway
There's always so much to be done
If you work to fill your life with goals
You line them up like dominos
Then you try your best
To keep the wind from blowing
Sometimes, you run if you gotta run
Make a break for that setting sun
I'm still hoping there's another one
Coming up behind me
If you worry about time enough
Watch the clock as it catches up
If I fall asleep without dreaming much
Isn't that just like dying?
So say goodnight, say goodnight
Every time you turn out the light
And just remember you had it right
When you fell in love
