[00:11.91](chorus)
[00:12.06]Sonny don't go away, i am here all alone
[00:17.88]And your daddy's a sailor who never comes home
[00:23.67]And the nights get so long and the silence goes on
[00:28.38]And i'm feelin' so tired, i'm not all that strong
[00:39.03]Sonny lives on a farm, on a wide open space
[00:43.86]Where you can take off your sneakers
[00:47.76]And give up the race
[00:49.65]And you can lay down your head
[00:52.68]By a sweet river bed
[00:55.47]But sonny always remembers
[00:58.44]What it was his mama said
[01:00.30](chorus)
[01:30.39]Sonny carries a load, though he's barely a man
[01:36.12]There ain't all that to do, still he does what he can
[01:42.15]And he watches the sea from a room by the stairs
[01:47.82]And the waves keep on rollin'
[02:08.34]They've done that for years
[02:09.24](chorus)
[02:49.02]It's a hundred miles to town,
[02:51.36]Sonny's never been there
[02:54.66]And he goes to the highway
[02:57.93]And stands there and stares
[03:00.63]And the mail comes at four,
[03:03.33]And the mailman is old
[03:06.27]Oh but still dreams his dreams
[03:09.27]Full of silver and gold
[03:15.00]Sonny's dreams can't be real,
[03:17.61]They're just storieshe's read
[03:20.70]They're just stars in his eyes,
[03:23.76]They're just dreams in his head
[03:26.61]And he's hungry inside for that wide world outside
[03:32.46]And i know i can't hold him though i've tried, and
[03:36.93]I've tried, and i've tried
[03:38.70](chorus)
