I saw you standing and I felt your rage Like a dark cloud on a crowded stage You were talking through the smoke in your fantasy I know you girl, I know what to believe Maybe things ain't been so good at home And the people that you love never cared at all You want to run away, don't care where you go You want to run away, run away, that's all you know Believe it's alright to fantasize And say the words you think will satisfy me But you know better than that 'Cause you know what's a lie You're living in dreamtime, baby (you want to run away) It's time to wake up, ooh You're living on dreamtime, baby (you want to run away) It's time to shape up In your dream, it's overcast Rain comes down, moving your way fast You want to run away, don't care where you go You want to run away, run away, that's all you know You turn a corner and you see a door Walk on through, throw yourself on the floor Oh, when you're looking up, it's no surprise Standing there is a man with movie star eyes You think he's gonna take care of you The man with the plan that'll see you through And I say there ain't no way 'Cause I know he's a lie You're living in dreamtime, baby (you want to run away) It's time to wake up, ooh You're living on dreamtime, baby (you want to run away) It's time to shape up, shape up You're living on dreamtime (you want to run away) Whoa-whoa You're living on dreamtime, baby (you want to run away) Want to run away, want to run away I know I say You're living in dreamtime, baby (you want to run away) Shape up You're living on dreamtime, baby (you want to run away) It's time to wake up I never saw anybody fall apart so fast You're living in dreamtime you know it ain't gonna last Never saw anybody think she's so right and be so wrong Living in dreamtime, it's hard to carry on, girl
