Time goes by, I fall out of touch I can't explain why I fall so much I bought a pack of cigarettes Sent an old Elvis stamp to your new address The weather's here Wish I was fine Wish that you could read between the lines You dream in colors My night comes in black and blue I'll send a postcard Oh, how I wish that I were you I am nothing, you are more Than flesh and blood A golden door Let me come inside of you Let me do the things I wanna do Take me down to where you live Take the things I cannot give 'Cause you dream in colors My night comes in black and blue I'll send a postcard Oh, how I wish that I were you. (Bridge) You are like the ocean I'm a river that's run dry If you cannot reach me All my wild flowers they will die Take me down to where you live Take the things I cannot give. You dream in colors My night comes in black and blue I'll send a postcard Oh, how I wish that I were you.
