Lyrics
IT?S MY DREAM
How many times did you hear God
Quietly walk among your thoughts
How many times you turned away
When something inside said you should pray
But you never needed anyone
I remember when you?d say
It?s my dream, it?s my life
It?s my loss if I don?t make it to paradise
So why don?t you leave me alone
You said the future is right now
Take what you can get, all you know how
You were the captain of your soul
Now you lie shipwrecked in the cold
You never counted on this so soon
I remember when you said
It?s my dream, it?s my life
It?s my loss if I don?t make it to paradise
So why don?t you leave me alone
It?s my dream
Why did you wait
You waited far too long
Now there is no second chance
To right where you went wrong
I see the hearse the limousine
The people in black the hills of green
You slipped from view without a sound
As gently they laid you in the ground
No you never counted on this so soon
I remember when you said
It?s my dream, it?s my life
It?s my loss if I don?t make it to paradise
So now you can me all alone
Was this your dream
