486. Open your mind - Wilco



I would throw myself underneath the wheels of any train of thought
roaming the rails or sailing through the roadways of your brain
If I could bring a light to shine upon the dark and disobey
the night so young, but I still say we're too old for clichés
Oh, and I can only dream of the dreams we'd share if you were so inclined
I would love to be the one to open up your mind

I could base my whole existence upon the cherry strains of your gold hair
and I would ask, almost insist upon treating you kind and fair
Oh, I could only dream of the dreams we'd have, how our hearts would be intwined
if you would let me be the one to open up your mind

I'd still be myself beneath the banks unbroken beside the stream
Ready to return your thoughts unlearned so it goes, so it seems
Oh, I could only dream of the dreams we'd share if you weren't so refined
I would love to be the one to open up your mind
