Plentiful Dreamin
......(pretty
corny, maybe bluegrass?)
I'm waitin for you to show up at my door
Been round the world twice, not searchin
no more
You're not in the book, I been runnin in
place
The ads that I run left me flat on my
face
Not a clue in your trash, no notes on the
floor
I went round the world twice, not
searchin no more
Where
is that book you were writin back then?
How is your mama? She was my friend
Knew you was trouble yet nevertheless
She told me I had what no one could guess
That you and me together would clean up
this mess
Restin in the arms of plentiful
dreamin
I got somethin grand in store,
lyin low
There's a special kinda peace
when you know the endin
Before the curtain rises on the
show
[instrumental
break]
What
happened to Nancy and her great big
bazoo?
She tore up your hopes and some of mine,
too
Sometimes I wonder how long you'll let me
wait
While you head down some road to the
Pearly Gate
There's a time comin soon when we all
lose the story
Lives build the plot, years graspin for
glory
But I know this, and I know you do too:
Nobody brings home what they forgot to
make true
I'm restin in the arms of
plentiful dreamin
Knowin you'll come back I'm lyin
low
Got nothin to lose cause I can
see the endin
Before the curtain rises on the
show
Waitin for you to show up at my door
Don't matter the date, i'll be waitin
some more
Time has a way of stretchin past the
blues
What we don't get at first recycles like
the news
I
could always leave you here, kick the
dance off my feet
But I seem to understand that its me
who'd lose the beat
I ain't singin your songs or writin
letters no more
Done that from coast to coast, not
searchin no more
Just restin in the arms of
plentiful dreamin
I got somethin grand in store,
lyin low
There's a special kinda peace
when you know the endin
Before the curtain rises on the
show
