lyrics

Fever dreams of finer things, they flitter quickly past.
Help me dream a better dream of love and life that lasts.
Our minds are swimming with the world's things,
But when the sun goes down
On all our Pleasant Valley Sundays,
Will these new fashions we've bought really keep us warm?
Monuments to what I've spent, a shaky blue jean shrine.
Chasing dreams of fleeting things is such a waste of time.
I dream a Kingdom dream intermittently between
Fits of American fantasy that lead to hollow, restless sleep.
Let Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, Lord.
Fever dreams of finer things, they flitter quickly past.
Help me dream a better dream of love and life that lasts.

- Lyrics by Chris Skillern
