Broken Dreams |
| There’s an ocean in my mind |
| I’d give the world if I could find |
| A sailing ship and leave the past behind |
| Now that I must say adieu |
| It’s killing me, I’m telling you |
| When freedom calls what can a person do |
| I have felt the winds of change |
| Go stealing through my heart and soul |
| How wild it seems |
| In love songs and in nursery rhymes |
| On movie screens, in fairy tales |
| Lie broken dreams |
| Life’s broken dreams |
| Love’s broken dreams |
| Sometimes a broken dream |
| Will make you sad or make you mean |
| Sometimes things ain’t as bad as they might seem |
| You might walk a lonely street |
| Until one day you chance to meet |
| A stranger who might ask where have you been |
| You will see the light of change |
| Come shining through your windowpane |
| When hope is gone |
| Though money, fame, and riches are |
| For fools and kings or anything |
| That turns them on |
| Life’s broken deals |
| Life’s spinning wheels |
| There’s an ocean I have found |
| I’d like to sail the world around |
| And dream about the life I hope I’ll find |
| Now that I must say adieu |
| To love’s returns, I’m telling you |
| When freedom comes what can a person do |
| I have felt the winds of change |
| Go stealing through my heart and soul |
| How wild they seem |
| In sounds of spring, in winter storms |
| In autumn gales, on summer morns |
| Lie broken dreams |
| In love songs and in nursery rhymes |
| On movie screens, in fairy tales |
| Like broken dreams |
| Life’s broken dreams |
| Love’s broken dreams |
