Lyrics

[01:48.88] On a dark December morning
[01:51.33] When the sun refused to shine
[01:53.00]
[01:54.25] Spent another sleepless night
[01:56.37]
[01:56.99] Got so much on my mind
[01:58.98]
[01:59.87] Think I finally know what's wrong
[02:01.80]
[02:02.61] I think I've gotta leave this place behind
[02:05.39]
[02:10.64] So I said wake up, Linda,
[02:12.26]
[02:13.38] I've had a dream
[02:15.19]
[02:16.19] I dreamed we away moved from here
[02:17.76]
[02:18.70] To a place I'd never seen
[02:20.58]
[02:21.69] Where the nights were long and cold
[02:23.56]
[02:24.99] And the air was fresh and clean.
[02:27.34]
[02:32.53] And there we were standing
[02:34.77] Underneath the western sky
[02:37.21]
[02:37.96] Beside a home we built ourselves
[02:40.64] Way up in the mountains high
[02:42.82]
[02:43.50] And we lived happy there, just you and I
[02:47.25]
[02:48.18] On a river of dreams
[02:49.91]
[02:54.28] There's no need to worry now
[02:56.36]
[02:56.93] Cause I've got a plan
[02:58.68]
[02:59.87] We don't need this modern world
[03:02.05]
[03:02.55] I'm not a modern man
[03:04.54]
[03:05.23] We're gonna get ourselves off these city streets
[03:08.29] We're gonna get back on the land
[03:10.97]
[03:16.15] There's a whole lot of people out there
[03:18.83] Feel just like you and me
[03:20.96]
[03:21.58] They'd love to pack their leavin' trucks
[03:23.58]
[03:24.14] And say goodbye to all their misery
[03:26.69]
[03:27.37] What'd ya say we pack up that Camaro, honey
[03:29.94]
[03:30.45] And chase the sun until we're free
[03:32.75]
[03:38.13] And if I could I'd lift you up on angel wings
[03:42.50]
[03:43.57] We'd fly away and never worry about a thing
[03:47.46]
[03:48.84] We'd know the joy and riches a simple life can bring
[03:52.97]
[03:53.72] On a river of dreams, on a river of dreams
[04:01.04]
[04:21.69] So get your things together now
[04:23.57]
[04:24.32] I'll be getting mine
[04:25.89]
[04:27.01] I've finally got the feeling girl
[04:29.19]
[04:29.76] The sun is gonna shine
[04:31.74]
[04:32.61] You know people don't run out of dreams
[04:34.93]
[04:35.93] People just run out of time
[04:38.31]
[04:43.49] Let's find that place out there
[04:45.91] Underneath the western sky
[04:48.03]
[04:49.35] We'll build a home ourselves
[04:51.28] Way up in the mountains high
[04:53.90]
[04:54.53] We'll live happy there 'til the day we die
[04:58.16]
[04:59.22] On a of river dreams
[05:00.40]
[05:05.52] And we'll have stars to wish on every single night
[05:09.26]
[05:10.82] We'll build a fire and make love by candlelight
[05:15.44]
[05:16.31] We'll do our moondance 'til we get it right
[05:20.44]
[05:21.06] On a river of dreams, on a river of dreams
[05:28.54]
[05:50.50] I can see us standing by the river
[05:52.78]
[05:56.53] Holding hands beside the river
