I just called home and I said I was fine
Just like I do every Sunday night
They're all sittin' round the table, eatin' a roast
And I'm holdin' back tears, pretendin' to boast
My song's on the radio, hey, aren't you proud?
They're yellin', they holler, sippin' wine to their mouths
They say goodnight and I hang up the phone
But I've never felt so goddamn alone
Maybe we can jump over the moon
I see rainbows and I might tell the truth
The dream's not the dream that I thought it
was
The only dream now is to be happy
That's above five dollars to pay a bill
And I know they don't lend it, but pride it'll kill
Sellin' guitars that nobody wants
Cause being left-handed's another dream
Damn fall
Maybe we can jump over the moon
I see rainbows and I might tell the truth
The dream's not the dream that I thought it would be
The only dream now is to be happy
I've got so far removed that I won't be able to see you
I wanted to quit
Tried somethin' else for the hell of it
But it wasn't the music that got it all wrong
Cause not even a virus could kill off my song
Maybe we can jump over the moon
I see rainbows and I might tell the truth
The dream's not the dream that I thought it would be
The only dream now is to be happy
But I don't need cars jumpin' over the road
Or hay particles to tell me the truth
Cause all of my heart is old, don't you see?
And that's all I needed to be happy
you
