| Snowbound siren in the winter dawn, |
| And there’s a blizzard blowin' in from off the river, |
| It’s 10 below out on these city streets, |
| Oh the feelin' in your heart is even colder, |
| The sunrise screechin' down the line, |
| The fog bank’s runnin' out of time, |
| But you won’t be here when they creep in tomorrow. |
| You’re tired of dreamin' someone else’s dreams, |
| When they really don’t include you any longer, |
| You’re miles from home, you’re runnin' out with each day, |
| And you need a good man’s love to keep you stronger, |
| Lately you’ve been gettin' doubts, |
| And a voice inside keeps callin' out, |
| That someone else’s dreams won’t get you nowhere. |
| So shut that suitcase kiss the year goodbye, |
| And don’t let nobody stop you at the doorway, |
| And close the shutters on this empty room, |
| Where those crazy dreams some crawlin' to devour you. |
| And head out on across that line, |
| Where she’s been waitin' all this time, |
| And tell him that you want him there forever. |
| It’s still 2 hours 'til this plane gets down, |
| I can hardly bear to wait another minute, |
| Your sweet lovin’s all I need, |
| And darlin' it’s been buildin' up inside of me, |
| Tonight we’re gonna paint the town, |
| We’re gonna drink champagne until we both fall down, |
| And find some other crazy dream tomorrow, |
| Tonight we’re gonna paint the town, |
| We’re gonna drink champagne until we both fall down, |
| And find some other crazy dream tomorrow. |
