Noisy Dream Lyrics

A crying boy

Came back from school

Sat down and scrubbed his knees on the pavement

He didn't stop until his limbs fell off

Desperately working until the job was done

He cried and cried

One of his friends heard him and grabbed the saw

To quickly finish the job

Now stuck on the sidewalk

Next to a busy road

He started counting cars

But slowly and surely

The time flew by

And his eyes were already closed

A noisy dream

I believe I can see

Shadows casted upside down

Mirrors reflecting sides of your house

And oh

Oh, in this dream I cast a spell

But you're still not here

And maybe you could dream of me

And in my dream, I would see you

And maybe you'd walk back to me

But when I close my eyes

It's not what I see

He opened his eyes again

And looked at the cars

The rest of his friends joined

They dared the boy to count as many cars as he could

And while counting, it started to rain

Everybody rushed inside

But he was still stuck in his place

He didn't stop counting to impress his friends

And waited for them to come back

Days went by

And yet he didn't even notice that the garden hose was missing

Still alone in his place

He counted

But his friends

Had already long forgotten about him
