april
beautiful world
breathe
cyanide
dream casino
dream the city's name
ellis island
emperor norton
the future
k5
let me out
lightning in the mind
love and delirium
new york confetti
out of the blue sky
out of your reach
red line
ruled by fear
seeker
shasta
smile
still life
telescopes and telephones
year of the dragon

I'll meet you on the stage
I'll see you on the movie screen now
In Dream Casino
(repeat)

Today I came here to watch your show
All my family on the front row
To celebrate your particular style
Every day, girl, every day
A lust for leisure, a longing for life
Caught in a pretty little picture
No fuss, no flowers, and nothing to hide
'Til the end of time

I'll meet you on the stage
I'll see you on the movie screen now
In Dream Casino
(repeat)

Hallucinating animal farm
Through a pain you never mentioned
Glen Miller playing all night long
'Til the curtain calls...

I saw you dancing with Fred Astaire,
I saw you dancing


I watched the sun fall out of the sky
And shared a moment with your old friend
But that night during Act 4 Scene 5
The hero whispered, "This is the end"

I'll meet you on the stage
I'll see you on the movie screen now
In Dream Casino
(repeat)

I'm dreaming a show with a line of masked clowns
Each one the face of my friends
I'm laughing asleep on a ride to New Orleans
Insomnia
You appear when I'm caught in a whirl of stage vibes
Sticks flying out of my head
And the treasure you send from your place in the sky
Makes my body new

I'll meet you on the stage
I'll see you on the movie screen now
In Dream Casino
(repeat x3)
