Denver John - Shipmates and Cheyenne Lyrics

There are dreams that sail away
To sea
And some that stay at home
There are dreams that stay inside
All day
And never see the light
And if dreams come true
I swear to you
I'll dream of you tonight
In a corner bar the local star
Destroys a passing chord
He sits behind a mason jar
And dreams of his reward
Then he takes one break
And counts his take
A dollar buys a bear
A quarter of his life is gone
And what's he doing here
Times are hard
The old backyard is covered
In cement
The people seem afraid to dream
And dreams don't cost a cent
There are dreams that stay inside
All day
And never see the light
And if dreams come true
I swear to you
I'll dream of you tonight .
