Some Dreams Lyrics - Steve Earle

When I was a little guy 

My daddy told me "Mister, 

Don't ever try to climb too high 

Cause it's the fall that gets ya 

And some dreams can never come true 

They'll never come true" 

Well, I heard every word he said 

But I don't guess I listened 

But every time I banged my head 

Against the wall or system 

Yeah, some dreams don't ever come true 

Don't ever come true 

But some dreams do 

If you just hang on 

And your heart is true 

And your hope is strong 

Well, just because you've been around 

And had your poor heart broken 

That's no excuse for lyin' there 

Before the last word's spoken 

Cause some dreams don't ever come true 

Don't ever come true 

Aw, but some dreams do 

When you're feelin' low 

And you think you're through 

That's when you will know 

Yeah, when you wish upon a star 

Buddy, don't you miss it 

Catch it 'fore it falls too far 

Keep it with your secrets 

Cause some dreams don't ever come true 

Don't ever come true 

Don't ever come true 

But some dreams do
