Pipe Dreams   





i read it all 

every word 

and i still don't understand a thing 

what had you heard  

what had you heard 

was it love 

was it take another walk in the dark  

you'll never learn 

i'd pray to god if there was heaven 

but heaven seems so very far from here 

and it all boils down to the same thing 

just a yin and a yang or a couple of pipe dreams 

and it all boils down to the same old pain 

whether you win or you lose isn't gonna change a single thing 

i stood in line and a thought crossed my mind 

i had been dreaming but i didn't mind 

i signed the line and the woman looked right through me 

she didn't smile 

i'd pray to god if there was heaven 

but heaven seems so very far from here 

and it all boils down to the same old thing 

just a yin and a yang or a couple of pipe dreams 

and it all boils down to the same old pain 

whether you win or you lose isn't gonna change a single thing 

i'd pray to god if there was heaven 

but heaven seems so very far from here 

and it all boils down to the same old thing 

just a yin and a yang or a couple of pipe dreams 

and it all boils down to the same old pain 

whether you win or you lose isn't gonna change a single thing 

and it all boils down to the same old fear 

just a link in a chain 

just a puppet on a string 

and it all boils down to the same old pain 

whether you win or lose 

whether you win or lose 

whether you win or lose 

whether you win or lose
