lyrics

We got caught dancin’
On the fraying end of a tightrope
Like I always swore I’d never do
It was hard to say that I’ve been so unkind to you
Like my mother taught me not too

Chorus:
Now when I’m sleepin’ the wind whispers in my ear
She whispers wife and child family of the year
We’d wake up on sundays
Sing the songs you’d like to hear
Then I’m reminded of the telephone ringin’
But It’s just my alarm clock
Sorry kid you were only dreamin’

Over a glass of wine
Swore you’d not marry a second time
Still I choose to hear the words that let me linger
Time slowly passes you wear those rose colored glasses
They hide the tears you cry
Your steps make a warning sound

Chorus:
Now when I’m sleepin’ the wind whispers in my ear
She whispers wife and child family of the year
We’d wake up on sundays
Sing the songs you’d like to hear
Then I’m reminded of the telephone ringin
But It’s just my alarm clock
Sorry kid you were only dreamin’
