Nothing to Do But Dream

I've got nowhere to go but to sleep
With nowhere to go but to sleep
I got reckless and I broke my baby's rule
I took my sister to the river and I came back alone
And my daddy is suspicious but I know how he does
I've got nowhere to go but to sleep

I can get to in my broken car
I would shut my eyes but I've got promises to keep

I would shut my eyes but I've got promises to keep
I've had nothing to do for years but dream
And I'm sick and restless with the wandering blues
I remember, I remember something about who we were
He won't find out about it till she's safe down in the mud

I would shut my eyes but I've got promises to keep
I would follower her down but I've got promises to keep

I remember, I remember something about who we could be

I can't go crazy and I can't get sane
I've got nowhere to go but to sleep
I've had nothing to do for years but dream
And I don't want to leave, I'd just have to come back again

'Cause most of my friends are gone down the line
And I'm sitting in town on the proceeds of my crimes
And this sickness that's on me is settling in my bones
I remember, I remember something about who we were

And there's nowhere in town
I remember, I remember something about who we could be
