American Dreamer - Enjoy The Still Lyrics

You haven't slept to dream in a while
Now why is that
Your nickels and dimes get higher
Doesn't ease the slack

I caught you in town last night
You said you were in bed
I guess with trouble calling
Jack's a dependable friend

You have nothing to say
But that don't mean I'm not listening
Come let's make the bed today
I know that hearts don't work quite the same way

You been working all day my dear
Just come take a rest
You say that work keeps you going
I think it just drowns out the mess

You can't pay the bills for your father
Or amend his regrets
You can paint the walls for your sister
But it won't change her health

You have nothing to say
But that don't mean I'm not listening
Come let's make the bed today
I know that hearts don't work quite the same way

You haven't slept to dream in a while
Now why is that
