Lyrics
3. Lemon Dream
Spent half my life jumping through the final hoop
Pressing my suit, staying in the loop
I’m showing my grey, showing weakness
I think I lost my way, I know I lost some patience
I wasted time on a lemon dream
I took my road, we weren’t what we seemed
I could have been a Mister, thought I’d make the scene
I wasted time on a lemon dream
Nobody’s buying what it is I hold
Nobody’s asking all the little things I know
I’m going all in, turning pro
Speaking Greek, tipping dominos
I blame my lady luck, oh, she’s such a fickle little one
I blame the bank, oh, it ruined everybody’s fun
But I need you to know, I never hold a thing against you
Well, to be honest now, I guess sometimes I do
