Wilco Open Mind lyrics

I would throw myself underneath
The wheels of any train of thought
Running up the rails, so sail you through
The rope-ways of your brain

If I could break a light to shine
Upon the dark and disobey
The night's so young
But I still say what you owed for cliches

Oh, I can only dream of the dreams we'd shared
If you was so inclined
Oh, I would love to be the one
To open up your mind

I could base my whole existence
Upon the cherry strands of your gold hair
I would ask, almost insist
Upon treating you kind and fair


Oh, I can only dream of the dreams we'd have
How our hearts would be entwined
If you would let me be the one
To open up your mind

I'd still be myself beneath the banks
Unbroken beside the stream
Ready to return your thoughts unknown
So it goes, so it sees

Oh, I can only dream of the dreams we'd share
If you weren't so defiant
I would love to be the one
To open up your mind

If you would let me be the one
To open up your mind
