I’m tired of dreaming of holding your hand Of long drives with just you and me Of things that will never be I’m tired of thinking you’ll ever love I With your sunshine smile And moonlight eyes You can’t drive my car So you sat by my side And silently took hold of my hand I shift gears with my left So we wouldn’t let go But, really, in the end I should have known That was a dream That felt far too real Now it’s something I don’t want to feel I’m tired of waking up From these horrid little dreams Chalked full of dread And leave me more worn Than my winter tires’ treads

You’re Not Gay
I’m tired of dreaming of holding your hand Of long drives with just you and me Of things that will never be I’m tired of thinking you’ll ever love I With your sunshine smile And moonlight eyes You can’t drive my car So you sat by my side And silently took hold of my hand I shift gears with my left So we wouldn’t let go But, really, in the end I should have known That was a dream That felt far too real Now it’s something I don’t want to feel I’m tired of waking up From these horrid little dreams Chalked full of dread And leave me more worn Than my winter tires’ treads
Last night I had the most terrible dream, I woke up more tired than before. He tried to drive my manual, didn’t know how. So I drove, laughing, flirted with me, slowly and silently grabbed my hand. We drove smiling, not saying a word. Then I woke up.
