St Robinson In His Cadillac Dream Lyrics

    Staring out of his window as the world rushes by
    Arthur Robinson closes the glass and replies,
    "I dream of Ballerinas and I don't know why
    But I see Cadillac's sailing"

    And I was born on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay
    But Maryland and Virginia have faded away
    And I keep thinking tomorrow is coming today
    So I am endlessly waiting

    And the comet is coming between
    Me and the girl who could make it all clean
    Out there in the shadow of the modern machine
    Walks St. Robinson in his Cadillac dream

    Carrie's down in her basement all toe shoes and twinned
    With the girl in the mirror who spins when she spins
    From where you think you'll end up to the state that you're in
    Your reflection approaches and then recedes again

    And the comet is coming between
    Me and the girl who could make it all clean
    Out there in the shadow of the modern machine
    Walks St. Robinson in his Cadillac dream.

    I have dreamed of a black car that shimmers and drives
    Down the length of the evening to the carnival side
    In a house where regret is a carousel ride
    We are spinning and spinning and spinning and now

    There's a hole in the ceiling down through which I fell
    There's a girl in a basement coming out of her shell
    And there are people who will say that they knew me so well'
    I may not go to heaven
    I hope you go to hell

    And the comet is coming between
    Me and the girl who could make it all clean
    Out there in the shadow of the modern machine
    Walks St. Robinson in his Cadillac dream, in his dream
    St. Robinson and his dream
    Some people are not quite what they seem
    Come on baby, come on darling
    Get into my car and drive
    Come get into my car and drive
    She sure does always does the same thing over and over
