I guess it’s a sequel to our story,
From the journey ‘tween heaven and hell,
With half the time thinking of what might have been,
and half thinkin’–just as well.
I guess only time will tell.
You recall a girl that’s been in nearly every song
This is what I heard of course the story could be wrong
She’s the one - I’ve been told
Now she’s wearing a band of gold
Peggy Sue got married not long ago
I love you, Peggy Sue
With a love so rare and true
Oh, Peggy, my Peggy Sue
Well, I love you gal, I want you, Peggy Sue
Susan do you mind,
sometimes I’m restless
Rolling on the floor in pain and woe
After all the precious gifts you
will gladly give to me, girl
I may blindly lock and bolt the door
I’ve been put down, pushed around, apprehended and led down town.
An’ I can’t help it if I’m out of sight,
'Cause I’m restless tonight.
I’ve been cheated,
Been mistreated ,
When will I be loved…
But sleep won’t come
The whole night through
Your cheatin’ heart
Will tell on you
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you’re talking in your sleep
When you close your eyes and you fall asleep
Everythng about you is a mystery
You tell me that you want me
You tell me that you need me
You tell me that you love me
And I know that I’m right
Cuz I hear it in the night
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you’re talking in your sleep
You’ve been talkin’ in your sleep,
Sleepin’ in your dreams.
With some sweet lover,
Holdin’ on so tight loving her the way,
You used to love me.
Talkin’ in your sleep with lovin’ on your mind.
When you get so down that you can’t get up
And you want so much but you’re all out of luck
When you’re so downhearted and misunderstood
Just over and over and over you could
Hold on tight to your dream
Hold on tight to your dream
Hold on, nothing’s the same,
Tell me why I feel this way–
Life wouldn’t be worth living without you.
Tell me why, tell me why
Is it hard to make arrangements with yourself
When you’re old enough to repay, but young enough to sell?
Tell me why you cried,
And why you lie to me…
–Tell me why?
–I don’t like Mondays.
I want to shoot,
The whole day down.
Let’s go down to the water’s edge
And we can cast away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out
Turning inside out
Turning inside out
Tell me why
So now you’re old, you’re wise, you’re smart
You’re just a man with half a heart
You wonder how it might have been
Had you not cast your fate to the wind
Now, don’t hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away
And all your money won’t another minute buy
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
I don’t mind you hangin’ out
And talkin’ in your sleep
It doesn’t matter where you’ve been
As long as it was deep, yeah
You’ve been talking in your sleep
Sleeping in your dreams
With some sweet lover
Holding on so tight
Loving her the way
You used to love me
Talking in your sleep
With loving on your mind
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
But you were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
