Staring at the Sky (Knowing We’ve Already Said Goodbye)

She takes my hand, grip so tight,

Singing don't you ever go.

My face is lost, to her tears so gold,

Words are useless, I'm torn in two.

I lose myself on a road so far from home,

Forever chasing a wayward goal.

Forget all your restless nights,

Where a song brought tears to your eyes.

I believe it was just a dream,

A dream I lived all my life.

I dream all my life.

I sat on the stairs, for so long,

Afraid I would never escape my dreams.

I reached the bottom, so long ago,

You were there, all draped in red.

My jaded eyes grew so weary,

When I forgot you were a wayward goal.

Forget all your restless nights,

Where a song brought tears to your eyes.

I believe it was just a dream,

A dream I lived all my life.

I dream all my life.

Two eyes like crystal, so clear,

They cut me as I bite my cheeks.

I speak so reluctantly,

My words are shaking in their boots.

I cross my fingers so hard,

I can't believe what I just heard.

Forget all your restless nights,

I dream all my life.

A dream brought tears to your eyes,

I dream all my life;

A dream I lived all my life.

I dream all my life.
