I was running through a bad dream

But now I'm waking up

She says almond colored sheets are best for dreaming

But it means nothing here

She says almond colored sheets are the best for dreaming in

but she has appeared to tell me in my dream

Whoa oh oh

I'd like to be alive long enough to sail,

I'd like to be alive long enough to sail the Dead Sea

I saw my grandfather today

He was lying like precious bones in a bed

This time the year before last, I was smoking cigarettes in a sleeping bag

It was my friend's room, but I lived there too

And one night I stepped out of the shower to discover that his mother

had taken my towel so I had to resort to using your old kindergarten,

your old kindergarten t-shirt

whoa oh oh when are you coming home?

whoa oh oh when are you coming home?

I'd like to be alive long enough to sail

I'd like to be alive long enough to sail the Dead Sea

I'd like to stay alive long enough to sail the Dead Sea

whoa oh oh when are you coming home?

whoa oh oh when are you coming home?
