Lyrics Tindersticks

Tindersticks

We Are Dreamers!

It's out there

Skulking around

Shuffling outside of our door

Whispering

It beckons us still

Tapping away at our locks

Through breaking days and falling nights

It waits

And when hunger creaks inside us

Then it breathes its offer again

This is not us

This is not us

We are dreamers!

This is not us

This is not us

We are dreamers!

You can rob us

You can trick us

Peer over our shoulders

And steal our ideas

Come inside

There is nothing left here

Just a table to dance on

And a song we might hear

As the cold creeps and the night falls

(We are dreamers!)

And as the cold falls and the hunger creaks

(We are dreamers!)

This is not us

This is not us

We are dreamers!

This is not us

This is not us

We are dreamers!

And we hang on

As we hurtle through this space

Together we cling as we are spun

In the beauty of our dreams

So don’t wake me, don’t shake these bones

Ah, don’t rattle those keys

So don’t wake me, don’t make me look

Ah, you gotta let me dream

This is not us

This is not us

We are dreamers!

This is not us

This is not us

We are dreamers!

When the night it falls

And the four winds blow

(We are dreamers!)

With the hunger creaking inside

(We are dreamers!)

When the cold it creeps

And there is nothing to burn

The great tree already sliced

(We are dreamers!)

You can rob us

You can trick us

You'll peer over our shoulders

And steal our ideas

Come inside

There is nothing left here

Just a table to dance on and a pot we might piss in

And the cold creeps and the night falls

(We are dreamers!)

And the cold falls and the hunger creaks

This is not us

This is not us

We are dreamers!

This is not us

This is not us

We are dreamers!

This is not us

This is not us

We are dreamers!
