in my room lying on my bed the air is heavy hot and still lady luck has left me or i m under the wings of destiny which is true i ll wait for time to tell i dream the fog surrounds me i dream this on a restless summer night it cloaks it s all around me and when it s there i feel that all is right you see this fog it frees me when no one else can see me i can hide i lie awake and dream that the fog rolls in rolls in through the night my mind roams cross oceans and years the time being s become a dead end last time i rolled the dice there flashed the eyes of a snake so i sit and wait for my turn to come round again i dream the fog surrounds me i dream this on a restless summer night it cloaks it s all around me and when it s there i feel that all is right you see this fog it frees me when no one else can see me i can hide i lie awake and dream that the fog rolls in rolls in through the night in the chill of its caress everything is alright and in the morning sun my dreams burn away they ve vanished with the night
