the dreamer

she told me that she loved me, i heard the siren sing, her voice as soft as dead of night, a pillow for a king, she tangled me in starlight, i dangled in each beam, now i'm just a dreamer, emerging from a dream, she tangled me in starlight, i dangled in each beam, now i'm just a dreamer, emerging from a dream, he promised he'd be faithful, that's what she was told, a ring would guarantee the words, a promise forged in gold, her dress a silk creation, her train a mile of cream, now she's just a dreamer, emerging from a dream, she tangled in the starlight, she dangled in each beam, now she's just a dreamer, emerging from a dream, where are your dreams, did they all fade away, lost in the cold light of day, no one sits in judgment, it's too well worn a theme, no one spots the moment, when the song becomes a scream, we tangle in the starlight, we dangle in each beam, then become the dreamer, emerging from a dream, we tangle in the starlight, we dangle in each beam, then become the dreamer, emerging from a dream, where are your dreams, did they all fade away, lost in the cold light of day
