In My Own Dream Lyrics - Resurrection Of Pigboy Crabshaw / In My Own Dream - The Paul Butterfield Blues Band

Lead vocal Chorus 

I didn't know. 

I was such a fool. 

And it took me a long time, 

Just to find out, 

That my head, 

Is upside down. 

What I was standing on, 

You know, it wasn't too solid ground, oh no. 

To satisfy, (Chorus: To satisfy) 

What I thought I'd be, (Chorus: What I thought I'd be) 

I kept on living, ooo, yeah, (Chorus: I kept on living) 

In my own dreams. (Chorus: In my own dream) 

And everyday, (Chorus: Everyday) 

I grew blinder. (Chorus: Everday) 

Thought I was so strong, (Chorus: So much stronger) 

I didn't need nobody's help. 

Oh, the strongest river, (Chorus: Oooo) 

Can't flow up hill, wo, no. 

To satisfy, (Chorus: To satisfy, oh yeah) 

What I thought I'd be, oo, yeah (Chorus: What I thought I'd be) 

I kept on living, (Chorus: I kept on living) 

In my own dream. (Chorus: In my own dream) 

You know, the tides of love, yeah 

Are so strong. 

You know, it carried me back 

And showed me my wrong, yeah, ooo. 

To satisfy (Chorus: To satisfy) 

Yeah, what I thought I'd be (Chorus: What I thought I'd be) 

I kept on living, oo, yeah (Chorus: I kept on living) 

In my own dream. (Chorus: In my own dream) 

Fading: 

Now, everyday (Chorus: Everyday) 

I grew blinder (Chorus: Everyday) 

Thought I was strong (Chorus: So much stronger) 

I didn't need nobody. (Chorus: Ooooo) 

But the strongest river 

Can't flow uphill, oh no 

To satisfy, ooo (Chorus: To satisfy) 

What I thought I'd be (Chorus: What I thought I'd be)
