Quiet Steam
|
|
Stand back
|
Stand back
|
What are those dogs doing, sniffing at my feet
|
They're onto something, pickin' up, pickin' up
|
This heat
|
This heat
|
|
Give me steam
|
How you feel can make it real
|
Get a life with this dreamer's dream
|
Oh, give me steam
|
Real as anything you see
|
Get a life in this dreamer's dream
|
|
You know your culture from your trash
|
You know your plastic from your cash
|
When I lose sight of the track
|
You know the way back
|
But I know you
|
|
You know your stripper from your paint
|
You know your sinner from your saint
|
Whenever heaven's doors are shut
|
You get them open, but
|
I know you
|
|
Give me steam
|
And how you feel can make it real
|
Get a life in this dreamer's dream
|
Oh, give me steam
|
Real as anything you see
|
Get a life in this dreamer's dream
|
|
You know your green from your red
|
You know the quick from the dead
|
So much better than the rest
|
You think you've been blessed
|
But I know you
|
|
You know your ladder from your snake
|
You know the throttle from the brake
|
You know your straight line from the curve
|
You've got a lot of nerve
|
But I know you
|
|
Give me steam
|
And how you feel can make it real
|
Get a life in this dreamer's dream
|
|
Oh, give me steam
|
Real as any place you've been
|
Get a life with this dreamer's dream
|
|
Oh yeah, I need steam
|
Feel your steam around me
|
|
Turning up the heat
|
I start to dream aloud
|
You move my hands and feet
|
Won't you step into this cloud
|
Of steam
|
This steam
|
|
Give me steam
|
How you feel can make it real
|
Real as anything you've seen
|
Get a life with this dreamer's dream
|
|
Give me steam
|
How you feel can make it so real
|
Get a life in this dreamer's dream
|
|
Help me yeah
|
Comin' alive
|
In your steam
|
Comin' alive
|
In your steam
|
Comin' alive
|
|
|
