Dar Williams - Magical Thinking lyrics

[Verse 1] Living in daydreams, yeah it's not a way to live You say the rock bed is dry, I say the drought has got to give And I can see the run-down station Where the trees grow in the tracks Show me how the roof has caved in Tell me there's no going back [Chorus] But I've been saying that the creek will run I've been waiting for the train to come Going back to all my magical thinking that Finds a break in the stone [Verse 2] Driving at midnight, it's when the dreaming starts again It all comes true if the light turns before I count to ten And if I do a few things better now Better than I've donе before The only thing I еver wanted Will be there, will be standing at my door [Chorus] And the creek will run And I'll be waiting for the train to come Going back to al my magical thinking that Finds a break in the stone [Bridge] And in the light of this reverie I can see it all some day It's as clear as any memory And it's just as far away [Verse 3] Oh have you heard the news, how they're bringing back the train? They cleared the trees and the old rails were shining in the rain Yeah it rained for days and nights on end It's like we emptied out the sky And the creek was running so full, everywhere You could hear it rushing by, rushing by [Chorus] Don't worry, even I know You don't have to say it's time to go I know all about my magical thinking I'm moving on from this impossible dreaming But I'm gonna stay a little longer; I'm watching as The water runs through the stone
