This Can't Be Today - Rain Parade

don’t know if it’s nice today

I don’t go out much any more these days

didn’t care for the things you said

but they just don’t seem to leave my head

last night I saw a little girl fly

but she couldn’t look me in the eye

strained to laugh but I had to cry

I never thought I could ask her, «Why?»

if this is all a dream, well,

it won’t go away

I only want to sleep

this can’t be today

trees they are so tall today

dreamed I climbed one anyway

seen so much more yesterday but

trees they are so tall today

if this is all a dream, please

make it go away

I only want to sleep

this can’t be today
