SOLID MAN

everybody sits around and tries to drown
in dreams that never made the shade or light of day
point their finger at the ones who let 'em down
it starts to sound like everyone was in their way

but when we sleep alone we come around, we come around

what has come of all the plans we used to say
represented what we thought of love and hate
I don't want to be the one who runs for cover
with the one line or another of it's too late

but when we sleep alone we come around, we come around

I wish you would tell me dear
what I want is what I used to hear
if I was a solid man
I would be more like the man I planned
a solid man

what is it that makes you finally come to terms
that makes you finally recognize what you have made
in the end there you will stand and on command
become the sacrifice of what it is to wait

but when we sleep alone we come around, we come around

I wish you would tell me dear
what I want is what I used to hear
if I was a solid man
I would be more like the man I planned
a solid man

all I do is sit around and try to drown
in dreams that never made the shade or light of day
point my finger at the ones who let me down
it starts to sound like everyone was in my way

but when I sleep alone I come around, I come around, around, around
I wish you would tell me dear
what I want is what I used to hear
if I was a solid man
I would be more like the man I planned
a solid man

maybe tomorrow
maybe tomorrow
