Another radical dream Becomes a long lost friend Beneath the rhythm and sound Lies another meaning And if you ask me today To say just what I'm thinking You might flee my reply And run upwards and run downwards It was so sublime It was so sublime It was so sublime It was so so so so sublime This entangled up dream Still plays on illusion Trying hard to escape More jangled delusion And if you ask me today And you wonder why It's not just what you think It grows outwards and it holds you It's so sublime It's so sublime It was so sublime It was so so so so sublime This American dream Becomes elusive If you're ready or not It may reach out and grab you And if you ask me today And you ponder why You might flee its reply And run upwards and run downwards It was so sublime It was so sublime It was so sublime It was so so so so sublime
