What if I took you dreaming
If I took you far away
All civilized and everything
oh how I wish we could have everything

but as seasons go
watching things grow
the light on tv
is a bunch of snow
got time to sow seeds
time to watch em grow
time's an artificial flavoring
don't ya know, don't ya know

What if I took you dreaming
you carry it all so well
All of the stories you left me
in pictures along the trail

when I dream up all the things we can do
what I want is to go with you
under the blanket of stars
singing to the moon around the fire
just be who we are

If I took you dreaming
would what we uncover be revealing
would we reach an amicable feeling

If we took off the disguise we made
would the price of it all be worth what we pay
all of the lullabies I know
they last too long
go way too slow
if you wait up
don't go to sleep
sing a song and think of me

If I took you dreaming
unfold the truth of desire
hear notes of consequence fading
falling like sparks from afar

close enough to see everything
feel the beat of a heart
the one dream that breaks
the one that keeps us apart ...

What if I took you dreaming
If I took you far away
All civilized and everything
oh how I wish we could have everything
