Dream Of A Child

歌詞

When I was a boy I dreamed of Phillip Marlowe He took me as his partner took me as his friend Gave me his fedora gave me shotgun fever Took me as his partner to the end When I was a boy I dreamed I was a jeweler With a family business that was free and clear Selling golden earrings to Mrs Mickey Mantle Trying to be gentle while I stuck it in her ear The dream of a child, the song of a man The key and the time are at his command The dream of a child the song of a man The key and the time are at his command When I was a boy I dreamed I saved my sister From the Rosicrucians for the love of God I threw myself among them slaughtering their numbers Striking at their laughter crying so hard The dream of a child the song of a man The key and the time are at this command The dream of a child the song of a man The key and the time are at his command When I was a boy I dreamed that Elvis Presley Was standing on the corner kissing Brenda Lee Mama always told me love was made in Heaven Tell me how my best friend could steal my love from me I love Brenda Lee - Brenda Lee loves me
