verse 1
Put me somewhere east of midnight
West of the turnpike
Anywhere I wander
Is where I'll take my rest

pre-verse
As I lie down, toss some thoughts around
Dreams I'm told will come true if you
Believe in those who love you right now

verse 2
Sea of dreams I long for you
Forget about the others
This is my hike, you can come if you like
To feel good, I would help you if I could

verse 3
But I am out here searching
For the things that might have been
I need no more reminders
Not one love letter have I seen

verse 4
And that's a pretty good start
The ocean is where lovers meet again
Sea of dreams by all means
Float me out of danger until then
Forever amen

pre-verse
It's a long, long hike
We'll be leavin' early travelin' light
That's alright heaven will be ours tonight

verse 5
The road is paved with moonbeams
There are faces that I knew
They all came back to haunt me
But that ain't fair to the folks like me and you

pre-verse
It takes a bit of my heart
Tonight I shall be watching from the shore
Sea of dreams from now on

verse 6
Forget about all the others
Back where the line forms
Destination sea of storms
By all means ever onward sea of dreams

verse 7
Put me somewhere east of midnight
Along about daylight
Anywhere I wander
Is where I'll take my rest

verse 8
If we could just lie down, love
Toss some thoughts around
It's a tough and a dirty long hike
You can come if you like

outro
If we could just lie down
Toss some thoughts around
This song is from the album "East Of Midnight".
