Lyrics
Most days, I wake up with an ache
From what I did the night before
My place is in her arms but it's too late
She's done walked through my dream of the door
Dream of the pallet
Spread out on the floor
Dream of the chalice
She's giving me more
Dream of the steamship
Come in to the shore
Dream of the sea cliff
And I'm waking up sore
Then I get to where I don't sleep
Bedtime stories pile up in a heap
Under the covers
There with the others
And none of them I can keep
None of them I can keep
Been on the back shift, since I don't know when
Yeah, been on the back shift, I'll be there again
Most days, I wake up on a break
From where I was the night before
Her face I recall but it's the wrong shape
She's done walked through my dream of the door
Dream of the mile creek
Stole off with my oar
Dream of the high peak
And I'm waking up sore
