Halfway gone and halfway back
You're always dreamin' 'bout what you lack
You're takin' your time from your busy day
To sit by the track and watch the train roll away
Dreamer, I know what you're thinkin'
I can see it in your face
Maybe before you were happy
But now your thoughts aren't of this place
You've begun to change now baby, I don't see
Oh, but I know you will and it's clear to me
You think chains hold you here now, baby
But they don't exist
You don't have to stay, mama, I won't insist
Dreamer, I know what you're thinkin'
I can see it in your face
Maybe before you were happy
But now your thoughts aren't of this place
So take the train today and don't look back again
Live the dreams you have, don't dwell on what has been
Your future's brighter now, there's brighter days ahead
Any sad farewell words, better left unsaid
Dreamer, I know what you're thinkin'
I can see it in your face
Maybe before you were happy
But now your thoughts aren't of this place
Maybe before you were happy
But now your thoughts aren't of this place
I only wish you were with me
Someone like you can't be replaced
