Lyrics

Once in a dream - a time
Long years ago I recall
I stood before a wall of stone and bricks cracked with the years
And I swore to free them all
For it lay between me and someone
A girl I had never seen
Once that was me - watching and waiting
That was my dream
‘Til I found you
 
Once in a dream, I cried
At the foot of a gate I could not pass through
Once I denied
I locked it inside
But you felt the same way too
And girl
I'd do most anything to be your friend
I'd stay with you, I swear I could, right to the end
I'd do most anything you say
 
Once I was wise, I laughed
At the very idea that I would succumb
To the pain and the madness
The stuff of my dreams
Then I laid eyes on you
Now I
Can't concentrate, it's hard to live from day to day
The things I feel for you I don't dare even say
But that's alright because you know anyway
 
Now in my dreams, I see your hair
Caressed by the winds that brought you there
See the days just die in the sunlight...
 
Once I had dreams, you know
You had the same dreams too
Years take their toll
But somewhere inside
Something led me to you, to you
 
See the days just die in the sunlight
Stars explode with the truth
See the days just die in the sunlight
Stars explode with the truth
Stars explode, turn gray in the morning
All on account of you
Sunlight strives, through the haze I tried
To find a memory of you, I cried
See the days just die in the sunlight
Stars explode with the truth...
