We could see life through the gutter then
You could wrap me around your finger
There's a rainbow number one
And too much love to take
There was too much toil in dreamland
Sometimes I remember when
Till it caused my heart to break
Till it caused my heart to break
And too much love to lose
And too much love to take
You make me do what you want me to do
Anytime you felt like tryin'
And too much love to take
You seem to be much better off now
There was too much toil in dreamland
So, if you need me near you
We were all dressed up in style
Could it be you've been deceived?
So, if you need me near you now
There was too much toil in dreamland
But you drove the young men wild
You seem to be the wiser now
You can do it if you choose
You can do it if you choose
There was too much toil in dreamland
Then you run the rules on me
You would cause my heart to break
I don't recall the gist of it all
There was too much toil in dreamland
