Mother's drink is in her handbag she sleeps most of the day her dog barks at the freeway as the uptown drives away from their offices and dietaries to their homes upon the hill the rain beats on their window now that time is standing still For all the tea in china would not move away but for a little sunshine I find the time of day this moment isn't moving this moment's here to stay and there's nothing wrong with dreaming this moment is ok Dad sits down in his armchair watching spiders on the floor making bets with one another who'll be the first to walk out the door it's a palace of distinction why ain't it home to me? where the sun comes up in the darkness where the drinking sets me free For all the tea in china would not move away but for a little sunshine I find the time of day this moment isn't moving this moment's here to stay and there's nothing wrong with dreaming this moment is ok And I thought I saw an angel and it tapped upon my shoulder and I wasn't ready for the answers yet, oh no but I knew that it was over its time to move along now the past is never gone And there's nothing wrong with dreaming this moment is ok yeah ohhh and there's nothing wrong with dreaming this moment is ok There's nothing wrong with dreaming.....yeah yeah yeah there's nothing wrong with dreaming this moment's here to stay there's nothing wrong with dreaming.....no no no there's nothing wrong with dreaming this moment is ok!
