[Verse 1]
I'm a troubled man, I'm changed by the things I do
True but it's funny how they all remember you
It all could be different, try to do something new
I'd given everything, oh, to be a happy man too
Got to understand, blamed by the friends I lose
Who's getting outta hand to think they depend on you?
It all could be different, try to do something new
I'd given everything, oh, to be a happy man too
[Chorus]
Buy yourself a dream, how's it looking?
Buy yourself a car and a house to live in
Get yourself a girl, someone different
Buy yourself a dream and it won't mean nothing
[Verse 2]
Gonna run it 'round, strange but it just won't do, no
When it's coming down, taking a hold on you
It all could be different, try to do something new
Given everything, oh, to be a happy man too
[Chorus]
Buy yourself a dream, how's it looking?
Buy yourself a car and a house to live in
Get yourself a girl, someone different
Buy yourself a dream and it won't mean nothing
[Bridge]
Closer
Turning it over
It all could be different
Closer
It's time to do something new
I'd given everything, oh, to be a happy man
[Chorus]
Buy yourself a dream, how's it looking?
Buy yourself a car and a house to live in
Get yourself a girl, someone different
Buy yourself a dream
[Post-Chorus]
No, I won't let it tame or twist me
I just got told that I gotta move on
No, I won't let it tame or twist me
I just got told that I gotta move on
