East of Midnight

[Verse 1]
Put me somewhere east of midnight
West of the turnpike
Anywhere I wander is where I'll take my rest
As I lie down, toss some thoughts around
Dreams I'm told will come true if you
Believe in those who love you right now
Sea of dreams, I long for you
Forget about the others
This is my hike, you can come if you like
To feel good, I would help you if I could

[Verse 2]
But I am out here searching
For the things that might have been
I need no more reminders
Not one love letter have I seen
And that's a pretty good start
The ocean is where lovers meet again
Sea of dreams, by all means
Float me out of danger until then
Forever amen

[Bridge]
It's a long, long hike
We'll be leaving early, traveling light

[Verse 3]
That's alright, heaven will be ours tonight
The road is paved with moonbeams
There are faces that I knew
They all came back to haunt me
But that ain't fair to the folks like me and you
It takes a bit of my heart
Tonight I shall be watching from the shore
Sea of dreams, from now on
Forget about all of the others
Back where the line forms
Destination sea of storms
By all means
Ever onward sea of dreams

[Verse 4]
Put me somewhere east of midnight
Along about daylight
Anywhere I wander is where I'll take my rest
If we could just lie down, love
Toss some thoughts around

[Bridge]
It's a tough and a dirty long hike
You can come if you like

[Outro]
If we could just lie down
Toss some thoughts around
