Lyrics
Joey went to sleep tonight in Boston but his dreams took him very far away
Grand Canyon was grand in shades of red and tan
Las Vegas lights callin' him away
Joey where'd you go last night and how long did you stay?
Tell us your story in your own way
Bright colors and lights or to you is it starless nights?
What do Blind Boys see when they dream?
Joey woke up this morning in Boston the sky was a bright shade of blue
Could have been a hazy grey or a bright and a sunny day
Tell me Joe do you hear the kids at play?
Joey had a dream tonight in Boston in his dream he saw the face of God
God's eyes were smilin' bright He gave Joey a blessin' that night
'Cause Joe sees better than most of us see
(last time)
Joey we know where you went last night God gave you a special light
'Cause you see much better than most of us see.
Yeh you see much better than me
