Dreaming - Mali

Should’ve known, should’ve known

Exactly what she was saying.

She didn’t know, didn’t know

How much attention he was paying

He was distracted by

Something else that crossed his mind.

So she went up to him and said «What's the problem, boy?»

And he said, «Sorry ma’am but I was busy.»

Many years went by

She was the girl he always wanted

She never noticed his mind

Was the place she always haunted

She was distracted by every other guy around

So he went up to her and said, «Babe, won’t you be mine?»

And she said, «Sorry, honey.

You must be.»

What was he supposed to do?

When everyone around him never really knew

Exactly what he was going through.

He was a victim of fantasy

It took more than 'being a man' to see

Just what a dreamer could do

But he never knew that

There he was, there he was

And all the people stood before him

He strummed his guitar

And all the people, they screamed for him

He never thought that he’d be loved for

Just what he did best

So when he sang, he sang about

All that he’d been through

And he blamed it on the fact that

All he was really good at was

Dreaming

He was busy
