Dreamers, anxious little dreamers
Wrestling with their demons
They toss and turn in desperate confrontation
Lightning, some are scared of lightning
But there's nothing quite so frightening
As a child's imagination

Wake up from your sleep my little darlin'
It's sunrise on the dirty side of town
All ghosts and fallen angels
Have gone back to the basement to lay down
So wake up little darlin'
Bad dreams don't last forever
Anything could happen
This new day may bring some revelation

Answers, there must be some answers
Hiding in the shadows
They may only need illumination

Wake up from your sleep my little darlin'
It's sunrise on the dirty side of town
All ghosts and fallen angels
Have gone back to the basement to lay down
