My Slumbering Heart
Rilo Kiley

In my dreams, I see myself hitting a baseball

In a green field somewhere near a freeway

I'm all tan and smiling and running from third base

It's hot and the kids keep on playing the driving game

And they're singing the same goddamn refrain

And the sky is a bluish gray


It's become just like a chemical stress

Tracing the lines in my face for

Something more beautiful than is there

I've barely been gone


In my dreams, I see you at the foot of some mountains

And we're taking some pictures or something

And we'd better hurry up

It's late and the sun keeps shooting through pine trees

And the grass stains are wet on your new jeans

And we'd better hurry up


I've become just like a terrible mess

Searching the lines in my face for

Something more beautiful than is there

But the crowds keep me coming back

Cheering


In my dreams, I see you asleep in a twin bed

The covers pulled up over your head

Am I asleep or awake?

It's morning and the captain is playing the radio

And he's just put the paint on his new boat

Am I asleep or awake?


It just feels good when we're waking up

It just feels good when you're next to me

It just feels good when you're coming home

It just feels good when it's waking up

My slumbering heart


It's become just like a chemical stress

Tracing the lines in my face for

Something more beautiful than is there

I've barely been gone

I'm not a failure I swear

I wish you could see it from over there

I've got a lot over here without you

I've barely been gone

Dreaming
