She came down the stairs in her cocktail dress

She fell on her food like a lioness

There was ringing in my ears like an SOS

She said, you dream too much

If you think I've a thing for you

You dream too much and it's going to end bad



the boom box was sounding sweet

We were dancing to a jungle beat

Just when our lips were about to meet

She said, you dream too much

Who's that girl in your dreams with you

You dream too much and it's going to end bad



You'll stumble going through life the way that you do

I hope I'm somewhere else the day that you do

The way that you do...



She had a chassis like an XJS

Skull necklace just like a high priestess

I thought maybe just one caress

She said you dream too much

You're dreaming now while I'm talking to you

You dream too much and it's going to end bad



All my life I've been like this

I start thinking of the perfect kiss

Velvet dream on an iron fist

She said, you dream too much

Even this isn't really true

You dream too much and it's going to end bad..
