Living In A Dream
Ben and Jean were lovers, a small-town romance
In that Mississippi mud, they wouldn't last
Took the highway to old Mexico
Searchin' for something but they never knew what
All they known was an old pickup truck
Headin' down the highway one sunny day
Living in a dream that would never last
They tried to make it out in that promised land
Living on love, take it day by day
Try to make some money down the interstate line
Jean took a job on a roadhouse restaurant
Ben tried to bring it home on his guitar
Leadin' him west singin' songs out of his heart
He was headin' to the top of the charts
But life ain't easy when you miss someone
Living in a dream that would never last
They tried to make it out in that promised land
Living on love, take it day by day
Time runs fast for a man on the road
Months felt like years for a woman at home
With a baby on its way and bills to pay
She prayed to him to come back home
Rock & Roll was the only thing in his mind
Get to the top, never look behind
The road goes on forever for a travelin' man
Living in a dream that would never last
They tried to make it out in that promised land
Living on love, take it day by day
Living in a dream that would never last
They tried to make it out in that promised land
Living on love, take it day by day
Living on love, but they never had a chance
Living in a dream could cause you so much pain
In that Mississippi mud, they wouldn't last
Took the highway to old Mexico
Searchin' for something but they never knew what
All they known was an old pickup truck
Headin' down the highway one sunny day
Living in a dream that would never last
They tried to make it out in that promised land
Living on love, take it day by day
Try to make some money down the interstate line
Jean took a job on a roadhouse restaurant
Ben tried to bring it home on his guitar
Leadin' him west singin' songs out of his heart
He was headin' to the top of the charts
But life ain't easy when you miss someone
Living in a dream that would never last
They tried to make it out in that promised land
Living on love, take it day by day
Time runs fast for a man on the road
Months felt like years for a woman at home
With a baby on its way and bills to pay
She prayed to him to come back home
Rock & Roll was the only thing in his mind
Get to the top, never look behind
The road goes on forever for a travelin' man
Living in a dream that would never last
They tried to make it out in that promised land
Living on love, take it day by day
Living in a dream that would never last
They tried to make it out in that promised land
Living on love, take it day by day
Living on love, but they never had a chance
Living in a dream could cause you so much pain
