Analysis of Too Busy Dreaming



too busy dreaming to ever make em' real.
spend all my time dazed behind the wheel.
seems i've lost my touch since i've lost you.
but i still hope that my dreams will come true.

love, money, money, love, love of money.
spend it wisely, cause times a thief honey.
i wasn't built to worship only Jesus.
love and money gonna' tear me to peices.
