The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Escaping Reality

Every night I go to bed

Afraid I'm gonna die

Prayin' to the sky

That I'll survive

Morning's when I wake up

The sunlight in my eyes

I turn and wonder why

I'm still alive

So every now and then I steal away

To the place I know far away

You can find me on a tropic island

Sailin' on a crystal sea

Blue skies above

Happy as I can be

In my own milk and honey byland

Sleepin' underneath a tree

I'm dreamin' of love

Escaping reality

I considered everybody else

Before myself

On my list

I'm twelfth priority

I've givin' up most everything

I've had in search of wealth

Lost my mental health

And sanity

So when these blues chase my smiles away

I go to a place miles away

You can find me on a tropic island

Sailin' on a crystal sea

Blue skies above

Happy as I can be

In my own milk and honey byland

Sleepin' underneath a tree

I'm dreamin' of love

Escaping reality

Yes, I'm dreamin' of love

Escaping reality
