Crackin' walls inside my head
With a bottle full of rain
I promised to the coaster
I wouldn't tear it up againFlick a peanut, break a glass
I wish I didn't sleep at Mass
And everything is closin' up
And yet again I come in lastI saw it in a dream
It was another time
And everything was blue
Everything was fineAnd you were always there
And I could see clear
I was always yours
You were always mine
Rise above it, rise above it, rise above itI see her on the ceiling
She's staring down in her gown
I had to make allowances
Between my love and goin' outNow everything is closing up
The last call is well asleep
At gigs I danced with a Blue Nun
Now heartburn is goin' cheapI saw it in a dream
It was another time
Everything was true
Everything sublimeAnd you were always there
And I could see clear
I was always yours
You were always mine
I saw it in a dream
It was another time
Everything was true
Everything sublimeAnd you were always there
And I could see clear
I was always yours
You were always mineRise above, rise above it
I wouldn't tear it up again
