Did you ever hear
A whisper in your ear
Some existential voice
Calling you on
From dusk till dawn
Leaving you little choice

Making a break
Just to finally shake
A distinct lack of sun
Leaving the rats
To the endless race that's
Never to be won

I've been told my ambition's misplaced
But every dream I ever caught, was a dream I chased

Want a shack on the beach
Wobbly-pops in reach
In a large bucket of ice
A little lady
Sitting where it's shady
Looking oh, so nice

Buffett and Marley
And a good time Charley
On board for a sail
Life is fine
When a fishing line
And calm winds prevail

I've been told it's a terrible waste
But every dream I ever caught was a dream I chased

Now if you think you might
Just hop a flight
Going south, one day
Don't be dismayed
If the plans you made
Get lost on the way

It's hard to leave
If you don't believe
In your true destination
But it's no crime
The fact that I'm
Stuck in this fascination

All in all it's a matter of taste
But every dream I ever caught, was a dream I chased
A little dream I chased
A little dream I chased
