They said I was the dream kid,
They said I was too young,
They told me it's all over now,
But my life's just begun.
Well, the first time that I saw love,
I was standing in the rain.
I turned around and there it was
Reaching out in vain.
So lay down your love,
'Cause here comes the dream kid.
Lay down your love,
'Cause here comes the dream kid to dream away
Sometimes you need a woman dream
A little French company.
Sometimes you need to fly in the sky
To get your spirit free.
Tonight I play the prisoner
And one night I play the thief
But tonight I'm just a lonely boy
A-longing for a little relief.
