lirik lagu ben eppard – head full of dreams
in the photograph my dad looks young
long wavy hair in the, summer sun
he’s got his head thrown back,
looks wild and carefree
that was the summer he met my mom
working at mcdonalds, the only one
in town back then
when they were seventeen
momma drove a young, harped-up mustang,
back when cars were made of metal
speed shifts in barefoot
with just one toe on the pedal
how’d you expect life to be?
things are never what they seem
with a head full of dreams
momma always blushed at the photograph
where someone wrote “s-x” in
silly string
and there were patches of snow
when they got married in the, spring
my great grandfather was growing old
so they moved into the farmhouse to carry their load
and stayed up late at night
bathing him and me
work as hard as you want
from dawn to dusk
the gr-ss’ll grow faster than it can be cut
farm fancies failed and palms turned to rust
but we were never doing better
how’d you expect life to be?
things are never as they seem
with a head full of dreams
when i was ten years old we brought my baby sister home
and daddy kicked the front door in
key wouldn’t fit, a couple more kicks
and nothing was going to his plan
he moved us to a house,
he was building to break it
life turned sour
momma held our home together and
learned to stretch a couple flowers
i never understood why he’d get so mad,
punch another hole in the wall
but i was gonna be a big rock star
and was young enough to know it all
how’d you expect life to be?
things are never as they seem
with a head full of dreams
late last night i
sat up flicking
through the young line real estate listings
which i’d never afford
cute little farmhouse out in the country
easy hold or nothing
and i ask myself,
what am i working for?
i went out
sat in my car and thought about talking with the bank
i’m not saying i agree, old man,
but i finally understand
how’d you expect life to be?
things are never what they seem
with a head full of dreams
how’d you expect life to be?
things are never what they seem
with a head full of dreams.
