lyrics

i dreamed i was living out in Brisbane and you called me up long distance, told me you were finally through with that dumb boy. so naturally i got on the next plane and then thirty seconds later i was standing by your side in Illinois.
and i don't need no Sigmund Freud to tell me what i'm going through. i think i just need to avoid thinking these stupid thoughts of you. i might not see you again, and i've got to come to terms with that, but til then i'll just pretend that my heart ain't broken. i'll pretend my heart is still intact.

i think i'd probably only hurt you if we ever really got together and we tried this thing for real, but those nights out late after curfew i felt just about as good as any man could ever feel.
and i'd give just 'bout anything to feel half that good today, but you can't hear me when i sing: you're two thousand miles away. and no matter how i scream, my voice ain't traveling that far. well, at least i have that dream wherein i board a plane and fly real quick to wherever you are….
