My baby dreams while he's awake He slips down city streets His soles are worn so that he skates While he's walking My baby laughs while he's asleep Too hot to worry He kicks the covers with his feet While he's laughing Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah Dah, dah Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah I've got the right side I've got the right side I've got the right side My baby's eyes are open But he can't see what I'm showing him Not turquoise like a swimming pool But calm and gray like morning Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah Dah, dah Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah I've got the right side I've got the right side I've got the right side The right side My baby, baby's man enough To reach and touch a heart that's beating Violet falls across the land The sun's gone down it's evening I've got the right side I've got the right side I've got the right side I've got the right side The right side The right side The right side
