Remember when we were back in school

Two young kids with wild ideas

Years gone by we sweated and saved

For a cupboard with a view

Now too old for work they say

What's the point in biding time

Living out our yesterday

When wild ideas could all come true



We could settle into being old

But all that glitters could be gold

So meet me in my dream

I won't fall asleep without you

Meet me in my dream

Underneath the Vegas lights



Look around our shabby room

Paper peeling curtains frayed

Faded photos on the wall

Like us they've all seen better days

We drew our savings from the bank

For roulette wheels and reckless nights

Sinatra's records on our minds

Fruit machines and neon lights



We made our peace

We cut our ties

We sold our house

We said goodbye

So meet me in my dream

I won't fall asleep without you

Meet me in my dream

Underneath the Vegas lights



We threw away our everything

And blew it on a final fling

So meet me in my dream

I won't fall asleep without you

So meet me in my dream

It's lonely there without you

Remember way back then in school

All the things we said we'd do

So meet me in my dream

Underneath the Vegas lights



Meet me in my dream

Meet me in my dream

Meet me in my dream

Underneath the Vegas lights
