Remember when we were back in school Two young kids with wild ideas Years gone by we sweated and saved For a cupboard with a view Now too old for work they say What's the point in biding time Living out our yesterday When wild ideas could all come true We could settle into being old But all that glitters could be gold So meet me in my dream I won't fall asleep without you Meet me in my dream Underneath the Vegas light&115 Look around our shabby room Paper peeling curtains frayed Faded photos on the wall Like us they've all seen better days
We drew our savings from the bank For roulette wheels and reckless nights Sinatra's records on our minds Fruit machines and neon lights We threw away our everything And blew it on a final fling So meet me in my dream I won't fall asleep without you Meet me in my dream It's lonely here without you Remember way beck then in school All the things we said we'd do So meet me in my dream Underneath the Vegas lights Meet me in my dream Meet me in my dream Meet me in my dream Underneath the Vegas lights
