You Dreamer You

Johnny Cash

10

I dreamed I walked in a field of flowers

Oh, what a dream

The houses all were silver towers

Oh, what a dream

Beside the road an angel sat,

I said hello and tipped my hat

And stopped when I saw her smile

And set me down a while

I set me down a while

You dreamer you

I tried the angel for a kiss

Oh, what a dream

But she turned away and my lips missed

Oh, what a dream

She said, "Sir, I'll have you know

I met you just a while ago

You're welcome for to sit

But calm yourself a bit, sir

Calm yourself a bit

You dreamer you

I fell in love like one, two, three

Oh, what a dream

I asked the angel to marry me

Oh, what a dream

She said, "Sir, I can't marry you,

But I'm a dream that can come true

There are dreams of much my worth

That live upon the earth, sir

Live upon the earth

You dreamer you"

Then I awoke and found my love

Oh, what a dream

As heavenly as the one above

Oh, what a dream

We'll marry in a sea of flowers,

Home will be a silver tower

There'll be heaven in my life

With an angel for a wife

With an angel for a wife

You dreamer you

You dreamer you
