A      D       A               G      D
Did I see you down in a young girl's town
                             A
with your mother in so much pain?
      G        A           Bm          E
I was almost there at the top of the stairs
            D
with her screamin' in the rain

Chorus:
                 A      G         D
Did she wake you up to tell you that
                          A
it was only a change of plan?
  G             A           Bm        E
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
           D
with the promise of a man.

Did I see you walking with the boys?
Though it was not hand in hand
And was some black face in a lonely place
When you could understand?

Chorus:
Did she wake you up to tell you that
It was only a change of plan?
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man

Will I see you give more than I can take?
Will I only harvest some?
As the days fly past, will we lose our grasp?
Or fuse it in the sun?

Chorus:
Did she wake you up to tell you that
It was only a change of plan?
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man
