In the sad persuasions And all my useless explanations All my misplaced dedications I just want to hold you near 'Cuz now I know just who you are I saw it written in the stars I hear it whispered in my ear The moment I awake It didn't work out the way we thought But sometimes in our dreams we do the right thing I want to be your comfort Your private sky and rabbit's foot I want to be the first to see Your sleepy morning eyes But there are no simple answers And my life loves disasters And right now I'm so shattered Take me back into your heart It didn't work out the way we thought But sometimes in our dreams we do the right thing I'm sorry I left you stranded And I took so much for granted But I was on another planet Take me back into your heart Like a miser with his money Like a bear with his honey Like a bouquet of sunny All my love I give to thee It didn't work out the way we thought But sometimes in our dreams we do the right thing
