My baby dreams while he's awake
He slips down city streets
His soles are worn so that he skates
While he's walking
My baby laughs while he's asleep
Too hot to worry
He kicks the covers with his feet
While he's laughing
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
I've got the right side
I've got the right side
I've got the right side
My baby's eyes are open
But he can't see what I'm showing him
Not turquoise like a swimming pool
But calm and gray like morning
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
I've got the right side
I've got the right side
I've got the right side
The right side
My baby, baby's man enough
To reach and touch a heart that's beating
Violet falls across the land
The sun's gone down it's evening
I've got the right side
I've got the right side
I've got the right side
I've got the right side
The right side
The right side
The right side
He slips down city streets
His soles are worn so that he skates
While he's walking
My baby laughs while he's asleep
Too hot to worry
He kicks the covers with his feet
While he's laughing
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
I've got the right side
I've got the right side
I've got the right side
My baby's eyes are open
But he can't see what I'm showing him
Not turquoise like a swimming pool
But calm and gray like morning
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
I've got the right side
I've got the right side
I've got the right side
The right side
My baby, baby's man enough
To reach and touch a heart that's beating
Violet falls across the land
The sun's gone down it's evening
I've got the right side
I've got the right side
I've got the right side
I've got the right side
The right side
The right side
The right side
Mandell, Eleni
