When You Dream Lyrics

[Verse 1]
With life just begun, my sleeping new son
Has eyes that roll back in his head
They flutter and dart, he slows down his heart
And pictures a world past his bed

[Pre-Chorus 1]
It's hard to believe, as I watch you breathe
Your mind drifts and weaves

[Chorus 1]
When you dream, what do you dream about?
When you dream, what do you dream about?
Do you dream about music or mathematics
Or planets too far for the eye?
Do you dream about Jesus or quantum mechanics
Or angels who sing lullabies?

[Verse 2]
His fontanelle pulses with lives that he's lived
With memories he'll learn to ignore
And when it is closed, he already knows
He's forgotten all he knew before

[Pre-Chorus 2]
But when sleep sets in, history begins
But the future will win

[Chorus 2]
When you dream, what do you dream about?
When you dream, what do you dream about?
Are they color or black and white, Yiddish or English
Or languages not yet conceived?
Are they silent or boisterous? Do you hear noises
Just loud enough to be perceived?
Do you hear Del Shannon's "Runaway" playing
On transistor radio waves?
With so little experience, your mind not yet cognizant
Are you wise beyond your few days?

[Outro]
When you dream, what do you dream about?
When you dream, what do you dream about?
When you dream, what do you dream about?
When you dream (what do you dream) what do you dream about?
When you dream, what do you dream about?
When you dream
