Did I see you down
In a young girl's town
With your mother in so much pain
I was almost there
At the top of the stairs
With her screamin' in the rain
Did she wake you up
To tell you that
It was only a change of plan
Dream up, dream up
Let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man
Did I see you walking with the boys
Though it was not hand in hand
And was some black face
In a lonely place
When you could understand
Did she wake you up
To tell you that
It was only a change of plan
Dream up, dream up
Let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man
Will I see you give
More than I can take
Will I only harvest some
As the days fly past
Will we lose our grasp
Or fuse it in the sun?
Did she wake you up
To tell you that
It was only a change of plan
Dream up, dream up
Let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man
