lyrics

In my dream I could face the day
And I wished my year away
And to think that they said
Things would get better in time

Not tonight would I cry
I won’t watch those days go by no more
For I swore to myself
Things would be better with time

All through the night
Fakes at home
And through their windows
I could see
That not by ourselves can we be better
Maybe together we might be

You might say that I’m blind
You might think that my mind has gone
And lapsed into a dream
But by our dreams we are freed

And when I awake
I found myself where I’ve always been
And not a cloud in the sky
Not a shard of that past where it lay
Not a line on a map
Or a time difference can keep blind hope at bay
For now and then I can see that sunrise peaking over the mountain
I might take my days
And live them more than I count them
For by our dreams we are freed
