Song Structure:

Throughout the song Larry plays a number of riffs, as tabbed above.  Generally he plays Riff 1 followed by one of the other riffs.
The song never deviates from a chord of C, but occasionally you might want to play it with a bass note of G, especially when it first goes quiet.

Lyrics:

For a love you dream

A dreamer still

 
For you love a dream

A dreamer still

For you dream

A love too bad to me

Where your song is all

The waiter still

And your song is of

Your rage will still

 
I relax and hold your way to see

It's the falling dark beside the sea

It's a dream along the water scene

It's the light of that you're ever share
