I'll lay my head in a stranger's town
All on a summer's day
A tangled web when the lights went down
And the sun came up far away

And so over the great blue oceans
And then over the cities filled with light
I know we'll be together tomorrow
Oh, but I'll dream of you tonight

I cast about like an awkward guest
Toward a park across town
I felt the sky open up right inside my chest
And your voice like a trembling sound

Saying over the great blue oceans
And then over the cities filled with light
I know we'll be together tomorrow
Oh, but I'll dream of you tonight

Well, the world gets quiet in an ordinary minute
In the middle of the afternoon
We cross the street in the course of a day
And our eyes fix miles away

The bird on a windowsill
He sings like a bell, like lonesome lovers do
I'm sure as ever now, I'm scared as hell
I'm coming home to you

Singing over the great blue oceans
And then over the cities filled with light
I know we'll be together tomorrow
Oh, but I'll dream of you tonight
Oh, I'll dream of you tonight
