[Verse 1]
Did I see you down in a young girl's town
With your mother in so much pain?

Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man
[Verse 2]
Did I see you walking with the boys
Though it was not hand-in-hand?
And was some black face in a lonely place

It was only a change of plan?
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man
[Verse 3]

Will I only harvest some?
And as the days fly past, will we lose our grasp
Or fuse it in the sun?
[Chorus]
Did she wake you up to tell you that
It was only a change of plan?
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man
