Dreamer Songtext
von Hannah Acfield

I′m suffocating in this hot, sweaty little town
I think to myself as I walk these familiar streets
If I'd been told that I′d still be here today
If I'd been told

So I kick a rock that's sitting in the dirt
I swear out loud, fuck it hurts
If I′d been bold it might be a different story
If I′d been bold

Oh dreamer
Don't give up on me
Oh dreamer
We′re not quite done yet
Oh dreamer, dream


So I head down to the river where we cannot swim
Cause it's full of crocodile and jellyfish
And I tempt fate and dip my bare feet in
And I tempt fate
And as I sit quietly
My grandmother gently whispers in my ear
It′s not too late if you wanna leave
Go be brave

Oh dreamer
Don't give up on me
Oh dreamer
We′re not quite done yet
Oh dreamer, dream

And I remember, I remember the stories that she told
A young nurse when the war had the whole world on hold
When marriage and kids weren't always a choice

So when the moon is high, I leave a note
It's not goodbye, I′ll be back at some point
I catch the bus, it′s the furthest I've ever been
A new beginning


Oh dreamer
I won′t give up on you
Dreamer
We're not quite done yet
Oh dreamer
Oh dreamer
I won′t give up on you
Dreamer
We're not quite done yet
Oh dreamer, dream
