Snow-bound siren in the winter dawn 

There's a blizzard blowing in from off the river 

It's ten below out on these city streets, 

But the feeling in your heart is even colder 

The sunrise screeching down the line 

And the fog banks running out of time, 

But you won't be here when they creep in tomorrow 

You're tired of dreaming someone else's dreams 

When they really don't include you any longer 

Miles from home, you're sliding down with each day 

And you need a woman's love to make you stronger 

And lately you've been getting doubts 

A voice inside keeps calling out 

That someone else's dreams don't get you nowhere. 

So shut the suitcase, kiss the year goodbye 

Don't let nobody stop you at the doorway 

And close the shutters on this empty room 

Where these crazy dreams come crawling to devour you 

And head on out across that line 

Where she's been waiting all this time 

And tell her that you want her there forever. 

It's still two hours till this plane gets down 

Can hardly bear to wait another minute 

Your sweet loving babe is all that I need 

Darling it's been building up inside of me 

Tonight we'll go and paint this town 

We're gonna drink champagne, till we both fall down 

And we'll find some other crazy dream tomorrow.
