Joseph Arthur Nuclear Daydream Lyrics

Nuclear Daydream Lyrics

When I was running out of time

I turned it into a dream

And you went
drifting into my mind

Things ain't the way that they seem

I turn you
into a dream

And make it all go away

You know your hair looks
different when you wear it that way

You've got a painted face and a body
made of clay

You are my super star



They will fill you with
big ideas

They'll hang your heart in the sky

I know you want to
save the world

How long have you been that high

How long have you
been that high

And did you make it all go away

You know your eyes
look different when you look the other way

You've got a cheating heart
bleeding emeralds everyday

You are a shooting star



Things
ain't the same as when we was young

They hung us from shooting stars

Let's tell the world we're doing fine

I know how lucky we are

I
know how lucky we are

To make it all go away

You know this world is
topsy-turvy in days like today

We got a million souls looking for a place
to stay

Each one a shooting star
