Belle & Sebastian

Belle & Sebastian - A Century Of Fakers lyrics

There you stand in your dungarees

Looking all grown up and so very pleased

When you write your poems they have so much to say

When you speak your dreams it takes my breath away

You know I want to be a ball player

A regular slugging fool

But I guess our dreams must wait awhile

Until we finish school

And so you and I

We watch our years go by

We watch our sweet dreams fly

Far away, but maybe someday

I don't know when

But we will dream again

And we'll be happy then

Till our time just drifts away

There you stand in your wedding dress

You're so beautiful that I must confess

I'm so proud you have chosen me

When a doctor is what you want to be

You know I want to be a painter, girl

A real artistic snob

But I guess we'll have our children first

You'll find a home, I'll get a job

And so you and I

We watch our years go by

We watch our sweet dreams fly

Far away, but maybe someday

I don't know when

But we will dream again

And we'll be happy then

Till our time just drifts away

Listen to the seasons passing

Listen to the wind blow

Listen to the children laughing

Where do broken dreams go?

There you stand in your tailored suit

So many years gone by, but you're still so cute

You take the car to go and meet the bus

When our grandchildren come to visit us

You say you should have been a ballerina, babe

There are songs I should have sung

But I guess our dreams have come and gone

You're 'sposed dream when you are young

And so you and I

We watched our years go by

We watched our sweet dreams fly

Far away, but maybe someday

I don't know when

But we will dream again

And we'll be happy then

Till our time just drifts away
