I lay my head in a stranger's town All on a summer's day A tangled bed when the lights went down And the sun came up far away Over the great blue oceans And then over the cities filled with light I know we'll be together tomorrow But I'll dream of you tonight I cast about like an awkward guest Toward a park across town I felt the sky open up right inside my chest And your voice like a trembling sound, saying Over the great blue oceans And then over the cities filled with light I know we'll be together tomorrow But I'll dream of you tonight The world gets quiet in an ordinary minute In the middle of the afternoon We cross the street in the course of a day And our eyes fix miles away... The bird on a windowsill, he sings like a bell Like lonesome lovers do I'm sure as ever now; I'm scared as hell I'm coming home to you Over the great blue oceans And then over the cities filled with light I know we'll be together tomorrow But I'll dream of you tonight
