The Great Caruso

1906 The morning after Carmen The earth was shaking The sky was almost burning San Francisco I'm The Great Caruso My blood-red suite with the lits jumeaux Are turning When I look at my life My life is a dream When I look at my life My life is a dream Let me sleep Let me sleep Then I woke up and I'm in the middle of the ocean on an island With a volcano smoking my last cigarette There are not many trees and a windy beach And big black rocks and a lot of mean dogs around me When I look at my life My life is a dream Let me sleep (Let me sleep) When I look at my life My life is a dream Let me sleep (Don't wake me up) Oh, the sun comes up And the sun goes down The sun comes up And the sun goes down Somewhere And a man came up to me He said: "Where are you going?" I said I said: "I am going nowhere" When my life is a dream Don't wake me up Let me sleep When I look at my life My life is a dream Let me sleep Let me sleep I am The Great Caruso
