The Rest Of The Dream
John Hiatt
You were a tiny spark Caught in your parents' eyes When they made love in the dark You were the big surprise And the old man came through Gave his very best for you And your mother's arms They kept you warm Like no other arms could do Chorus: When you couldn't find the light At the top of the stairs When you cried in the night Well, you knew they were there Will the light of the day Was as bright as it seemed And you knew in your heart You were livin' the rest of the dream Well, i had a dream of you But i never realized Baby, the dream was true That's when you opened my eyes And i will come through Do my very best for you And your lovin' arms Gonna keep me warm Like no other arms will do When you can't find the light At the top of the stairs When you cry in the night Well, you know i'll be there Till the light of the day Is as bright as it seems And you know in your heart You're livin' the rest of the dream Now i see a tiny spark Caught in your lovin' eyes As we make love in the dark And wait for the big surprise And the old man will come through Son or daughter, just for you And your mama's arms Gonna keep you warm Like no other arms can do When you can't find the light At the top of the stairs When you cry in the night Well you know we'll be there Till the light of the day Is as bright as it seems And you know in your heart You're livin' the rest of the dream ChorusCalming Feelgood tracks golden oldies
