"Dream On" lyrics - TORI AMOS

TORI AMOS
"Dream On"

Every time that I look in the mirror
All the lines on my face are gettin' clearer
The past is gone, it goes by like dusk till dawn

Every time that I look in the mirror these days
All the lines on my face are gettin' clearer now
The past is gone, it goes by like dusk till dawn

Isn't that the way
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay

And I kn-know no-nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
Now I know everybody's sin
You got to lose to know, know how to win

Sing with me, sing for the year
Singin' for my laughter, singin' for the tear
Sing with me, it's just for today
Never tomorrow, the good Lord'll take it away

Sing with me, sing for the year
Singin' for my laughter, singin' for my tear
Sing with me, it's just for the day
Never tomorrow, the good Lord'll take it away

Half my life is in books' written pages
Lived and learned from fools and from sages
You know, you know it's true
All the things come back to you

Sing with me, sing for the year
Singin' for my laughter, singin' for my tear
Sing with me, it's just for the day
Never tomorrow, the good Lord'll take it away

Every time that I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face are gettin' clearer, well
Well, the past is gone, it goes by us like dusk till dawn

Isn't that the way
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay
So, sing with me, sing for the year
Singin' for my laughter, singin' for my tear

Sing with me, sing for the year
Singin' for my laughter, singin' for my tear
Sing with me, sing for the year
Singin' for my laughter, singin' for my tear

Sing with me, it's just for today
Never tomorrow, never tomorrow, never tomorrow

Dream on, dream on, dream on
I said, dream on, dream, dream on, dream on, dream on
