Jim Carroll Hold Back The Dream Lyrics

Hold Back The Dream Lyrics

[Messed?] and peculiar

Dancing with Julia

I see no spare sky

This is the last try



The static from dreaming

Is only now seeming

To bring on disaster

I told you, I asked her

All she said was, "No"



Refrain:

Sometimes you need a matador

Sometimes you need a charging bull

The dust will rise and shield the sky

No dreams to push, no dreams to pull



Down to the bone

I was dancing with Mona

New stars are born she says

At the break of morning

Just before morning



I must be up and dressed to survive

It's been a week now

I've had no sleep how

I think this maybe far 

Only Good truly knows



Repeat Refrain 2 times



Hold back the dream
