Dream Came Down

Nobody gets what they want anymore
You can barely get what you need
But all I need seems like it's you

No one's satisfied anymore
They're knocking on all the wrong doors
The only door I'll stand at is yours

Since the dream came down
On this mean old town
Who thought hope would show her face down here.

Nobody's in the right mood anymore
Everyone's thinking too much
My great escape is in your touch

Nobody seems to be laughing out loud
Is everyone too cool to smile
All this heaviness is not your style

Since the dream came down
On this mean old town
Who thought luck would lay its hands on me?

I never wanted to fall so far
I never needed you 'til life got hard

Everyone's on the phone all the time
Nobody talks face to face
But I'm happiest sharing your space

You were supposed to be here ten minutes ago
You show up and say "sorry I'm late"
You don't even know how much you're worth the wait

Since the dream came down
On this mean old town
Who thought hope would show her face down here.

Since the dream came down
On this mean old town
Who thought luck would lay its hands on me?
