SLEEPING DREAMS
And thousands of stars
and silver moonlight
and a velvet sky
and a perfect night
I'm warm in your arms
and safe in your smile
oh, I'll play the game
for a little while
but deep in my heart
where sleeping dreams dwell
there's a part of me
I've hidden so well
it's bruised and it's torn
and shattered with fears
still looking for love
still scarred by the tears
wish I could tell you
what no words can say
don't mean to hurt us
but I'll walk away
dreams that I cherished
always hoped would last
memories haunt me
of a love long past
and I gave you all
but I can't give me
for this broken heart
must always stay free
best if I go now
I'll leave you to sleep
silence and shadows
and secrets I'll keep
time to move on now
I'm closing the door
gave me all your love
but I needed more
needed my true love
tho he broke my heart
I can't forget him
and so we must part
I'll laugh with sunlight
I'll dance with the rain
night has the darkness
for hiding my pain
daylight is stirring
the breeze on my face
whispers and kisses
and fingers like lace
wanted to love you
I thought that I should
wanted to love you
if only I could
but morning stole by
with yellow sunbeams
and I woke once more
to my sleeping dreams
