I had a dream about you
Real as my own hand
We were side by side while the boats rolled by
By the bright summer sand

I had to cry when I woke up
For life is truly cruel
And cruelest to those who love
And who can't stay true

Some nights
I feel like I'm watching your red tail lights
Disappearing
Some nights
I feel like watching your red tail lights
Disappearing

Oh-oh-oh

I could see the future out so far
Like the county fair balloon
Red and rising in a blue, blue sky
Until there's only blue

You might be a fool for your love
She may rule your every move
But if you let her slip away from you
You might be nothing but a fool

Oh-oh-oh

Some nights
I feel like I'm watching your red tail lights
Disappearing
Some nights
I feel like I'm watching your red tail lights
Disappearing

Some nights I feel like
Disappearing
