Songtext von All fall down

When I was a little country boy I had a dream, Our family wasn't poor but rich instead I took to the road instead of staying home to help, And that dream just withered up inside my head All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes they fall down All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes all fall down When I was a strong young man I fell in love with Sue, I wanted her to be my wife someday But I couldn't bring myself to say "Sue, I love you", And that dream just fell to the ground and blew away All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes they fall down All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes all fall down When I reached middle age I hungered for success, And things like fancy limousines and such About as close as I came to that fancy limousine, Was a thirty thousand dollar greyhound bus All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes they fall down All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes all fall down When I reached my golden years I often had a dream, That I'd be respected by society But here I am on skid row with a bottle in my hand, And free advice to give to fools like me All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes they fall down All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes all fall down All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes they fall down All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes When I was a little country boy I had a dream, Our family wasn't poor but rich instead I took to the road instead of staying home to help, And that dream just withered up inside my head All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes they fall down All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes all fall down When I was a strong young man I fell in love with Sue, I wanted her to be my wife someday But I couldn't bring myself to say "Sue, I love you", And that dream just fell to the ground and blew away All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes they fall down All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes all fall down When I reached middle age I hungered for success, And things like fancy limousines and such About as close as I came to that fancy limousine, Was a thirty thousand dollar greyhound bus All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes they fall down All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes all fall down When I reached my golden years I often had a dream, That I'd be respected by society But here I am on skid row with a bottle in my hand, And free advice to give to fools like me All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes they fall down All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes all fall down All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes they fall down All fall down, all fall down, When you build your dreams on wishes all fall down
