Lyrics
WAKING IN A DREAM
Here I am
On solid ground tonight
I made it through
But not without a fight
I had a plan
Not just a fantasy
Though I had help
It wasn't only me
Waking in a dream
Right along with you
Standing next to me
Like you always do
Waking in a dream
Hand in hand my friend
Steady with your love
Right until the end
Doing time
On hard luck avenue
The nights were cold
I know that much is true
Sometimes I thought
The dream would slip away
You were my rock
You were the light of day
Waking in a dream
Right along with you
Standing next to me
Like you always do
Waking in a dream
Hand in hand my friend
Steady with your love
Right until the end
I worked hard
And gave it everything
I took the heat
Sometimes the pain would sting
And though you know
It didn't come for free
There were some things
I'm glad you didn't see
Lookin' back, I had no other choice
I made a vow, with a determined voice
I wouldn't run.. or find a place to hide
and there you were.. always right by my side
