Sonny's Dream lyrics

Sonny lives on a farm, in the wide open space

You can kick off your sneekers, and give up the race

You can lay your self down, by a sweet river bed

Sonny always remembers, what it was his moma said

Sonny don't go away, I am here all alone

And your daddy's a sailor, and he never comes home

And the nights get so long, and the silence goes on

And I'm feeling so tired, I'm not all that strong

Sonny caries a load, He is barely a man

There's not all that much to do, still he does the best he can

And he lives in a room, at the top of the stairs

And the sea keeps on rollin in it's done that for years

Sonny don't go away, I am here all alone

And your daddy's a singer, and he never comes home

And the nights get so long, and the silence goes on

And I'm feeling so tired, I'm not all that strong

Towns a hundred miles away Sonny's never been there

He just goes to the highway and he stands there and stares

And the mail comes at four and the mail man is old

Yet he's still dreaming dreams filled with silver and gold

Sonny don't go away, I am here all alone

And your daddy's a sailor, and he never comes home

And the nights get so long, and the silence goes on

And I'm feeling so tired, I'm not all that strong

Sonny don't go away, sonny don't go away
