Dreams of wealth and power Songtext
I dreamed I was wealthy
rich beyond words
money fell on me like rain
I had gardens with fountains
peacocks and lakes
I had cellars with claret
and vintage champagne
I could bathe in numberless diamonds
I had gold dust to powder my arse
I bought mountains rivers and continents
planets and comets and stars

but you didn't love me
anymore
you didn't love me
anymore
I had to wake up
slap myself hard in the face
work out a way to get out of this place
and to find you

I dreamed i had power
and influence
over all the people I'd meet
opportunity fell at my fingertips
oh the rich and the poor worlds
were both at my feet
I could take on insane situations
and triumph in spite of all odds
I gave orders to presidents
to tyrants and kings
to prophets and demons and gods

but you didn't love me
anymore
you didn't love me
anymore
I had to wake up
slap myself hard in the face
work out a way to get out of this place
and to find you
