Dreamers Lyrics

Jack Savoretti

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 listenin’
Still they had so much to tell

Whatever happened to the dreamers
That always looked beyond the sky
And saw a world they could believe in
But only when they closed their eyes

There were the politicians
Men of the cloth, painters and poets
Starting revolutions
Without even knowing
Making the world up around us
Making heaven and hell
Saying so much about us
Still they had so much to tell

Whatever happened to the dreamers
That always looked beyond the sky
And saw a world they could believe in
But only when they closed their eyes

Where are they now
They’ve all left town
Bring in the clowns

Whatever happened to the dreamers
That always looked beyond the sky
And saw a world they could believe in
But only when they closed their eyes
But only when they closed their eyes

Nothings ever been this way before
A dream is just a dream
And nothing more
Nothings ever been this way before
A dream is just a dream
Nothing more
