Early in the morning, too hungover to go back to sleep
Every sound is amplified, every light so dizzying
LIsten for a while to the neighbors having sex
Wishing I could lay my aching head upon your breast
Can't I dream another dream?
Can't I close my eyes and wonder back to sleep?

But I'm daydreaming about you
I know that it's wrong
That I'm daydreaming about you
Cause I've been daydreaming for so long

Bloody mary afternoon, waste my time out in the sun
Hum myself some melodies, maybe I could sing you one
Maybe I could find you sitting down at the cafe
Maybe I could join you at your table today
Can't I just get what I want?
Can't I be the man that steals away your heart?

But I'm daydreaming about you
I know that it's wrong
That I'm daydreaming about you
I've been daydreaming for so long
Yeah, I've been daydreaming for so long

Later in the evening, take the bus down to see the show
You'll be behind the bar, I'll get a beer, leave a tip, and lay low
I'm just a kid that gets his drinks from you
Who stands around and doesn't have a clue
Can't I hold you close to me?
Can't I ever say to you just what I mean?

But I'm daydreaming about you
I know that it's wrong
That I'm daydreaming about you
Cause I've been daydreaming for so long
Oh yeah, I've been daydreaming for so long
