Jack Savoretti - Dreamers Lyrics

There was a time and place
Not far from here and now
Maybe a brighter day
Maybe they had it made somehow

Living for there and then
Under a psychedelic spell
No one was listening
Still they had so much to tell

Whatever happened to the dreamers
They always look beyond the sky
Saw a world they could believe in
But only when they close their eyes

There were the politicians
Men of the cloth, painters and poets
Starting a revolution
Without even knowing it

Making the world around us
Making heaven and hell
Saying so much about us
Still they had so much to tell

Whatever happened to the dreamers
They always looked beyond the sky
Saw a world they could believe in
But only when they close their eyes

Where are they now?
They've all left town
Bringing the clouds

Whatever happened to the dreamers
They always look beyond the sky
Saw a world they could believe in
But only when they close their eyes
But only when they close their eyes

Why are we on our own?
Why are we on our own?

Nothing's ever been this way before
A dream is just a dream and nothing more
Nothing's ever been this way before
A dream is just a dream and nothing more
