There's a blizzard blowing in from off the river  
 It's ten below out on these city streets,  
 But the feeling in your heart is even colder  
 The sunrise screeching down the line  
 And the fog banks running out of time,  
 But you won't be here when they creep in tomorrow  
  
 You're tired of dreaming someone else's dreams  
 When they really don't include you any longer  
 Miles from home, you're sliding down with each day  
 And you need a woman's love to make you stronger  
 And lately you've been getting doubts  
 A voice inside keeps calling out  
 That someone else's dreams don't get you nowhere.  
  
 So shut the suitcase, kiss the year goodbye  
 Don't let nobody stop you at the doorway  
 And close the shutters on this empty room  
 Where these crazy dreams come crawling to devour you  
 And head on out across that line  
 Where she's been waiting all this time  
 And tell her that you want her there forever.  
  
 It's still two hours till this plane gets down  
 Can hardly bear to wait another minute 
 Your sweet loving babe is all that I need  
 Darling it's been building up inside of me  
 Tonight we'll go and paint this town  
 We're gonna drink champagne, till we both fall down  
 And we'll find some other crazy dream tomorrow
