Sonny signed his name up for tomorrow

Laughed with all his friends

And all the little men who borrow tunes

They heard just yesterday Davey got us down but we got away

And drank to all the days

We had whiled away

Just playing Robin Hood a little out of phase Then the nightmares come and you get blown away

And up in your room your walls are cold

You find your head is holding out

For the welcome of a better day Then the nightmares come and you get blown away

And up in your room your walls are getting colder

Like you're getting on a roller coaster

You can't find the breaks Stevie burned the sky when he flew away

And left us things to say

When all the world is falling down

Around our shoulders, cold and gray Harry carried on in his usual way

And Minnie went inside

He came out once and we both cried

And Minnie blew my head away And then the nightmares come and you get blown away

And up in your room your walls are cold

You find your head is holding out

For the welcome of a better day Then the nightmares come and you get blown away

And up in your room, your walls are getting colder

Like you're getting on a roller coaster

You can't find the breaks When you're giving everything away

Everybody lets you pay

You're saving up for a better day

You're seeing things in a better way When you know you've got to live

There's nothing you won't give

To hear the phone and not let it ring

Every Monday morning Shughie found love and he almost cried

We laughed and wondered why

We loved the sky and found the space

And gazed out over Stevie's plane But then the nightmares come when your friends go away

And up in your room your walls are cold

You find your head is holding out

For the welcome of a better day Then the nightmares come, you get blown away

And up in your room, your walls are getting colder

Like you're getting on a roller coaster

You can't find the breaks Then the nightmares come
