lyrics

I'm tired of fences, tired of skies broken by the wires
I've been inside my whole life, looking through the bars
I took a woman's breath away; she was the girl of my dreams
But now I'm getting out, they're letting me out
No more drowning in my dreams
Driving through my hometown where everything has changed
I got to buy back my soul again, my parole officer said
I was on the main street, wasting time, my head was black with thought
I saw her in the window of the gas station restaurant
She looked just like the girl of my dreams
I asked her to the riverbank for a walk along the shore
Under the bridge, we sat awhile and talked about anything
I wrote my name upon her arm, she wrote her name on mine
We sat close, I smelled her hair, my head was black with thought
Trying to kiss the girl of my dreams
They found her on the riverbank; my name was on her arm
I was on the main street, wasting time, when everything went wrong
I'm tired of fences, tired of skies broken by the wires
I can't buy back my soul again, drowning in my dreams
