Silence, silence now
Silence, silence now

As you sit and read the paper
Dozing off, you dim the light
Put your glasses on the table
Sink into your easy chair

Dream the dream you've always dreamed of
You're a boy so free and wild
In this dream you capture freedom
And you're not your father's child

People cheer and clap their hands
Now you dream that you're a man
Amidst applause and blissful noise
You cannot hear your father's voice saying

Silence, silence now
Silence, silence now

As you dream you're in the circus
Ran away from home at ten
Got yourself a painted pony
Summersaults upon his back

This is what you've always wanted
Could this be the promise land
Share a laugh with all the carnies
Limelight and adoring fans

People cheer and clap their hands
Now you dream that you're a man
Amidst applause and blissful noise
You'll never hear your father's voice screaming

Silence, silence now
Silence, silence now

As you sit and read your paper
Dozing off you dim the light
As you wake your dream is over
Forget it all and say goodnight
Goodnight
This song is from the album "In The Journey".
