The Statler Brothers Lyrics
"Dream On"

(Don Reid)

I'm wore out from apologizing
Sick and tired of compromising
The next word that you hear will be goodbye
I've had enough of talkin' 'bout it
I might be sorry but I doubt it
If you think I'll sit home each night and cry.

Dream on, dream on,
Dream on, dream on
You think everything
Will be roses on your own.

And life will get better
When you're all alone
Dream on, dream on
Dream on honey, dream on.

--- Instrumental ---

When the preacher comes by to console you
I don't mean to say I told you
But you'll shade it to make me look unfair
Then you'll lie outright to all the neighbors
And tell you sister that I hate her
When all is said and done if you think I care.

Dream on, dream on,
Dream on, dream on.

If some night in your sleep
someone loves you tenderly
And when you wake up in the morning
You've dreamed that it was me.

Dream on, dream on
Dream on, honey dream on.

If you have a crazy thought sometime
Miss me and think maybe I'm somewhere all alone
And missing you
Dream on, dream on
Dream on honey, dream on.

Dream on, dream on
Dream on honey, dream on.

Dream on, dream on
Dream on honey, dream on
Dream on, dream on
Dream on honey, dream on...
