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
