Beauty Of A Dream |
The beauty of a dream is you don’t let it go, |
You don’t ever let it go. |
Once in a while a girl comes along |
And opens your heart like a spam tin |
Just how long can it take? |
A bow bends, a bow breaks |
And then when its time to return the key |
She’ll flash you a smile as she slams the door |
But you didn’t have to do that to me To show me just how cruel love could be And cruel’s a show I kinda starred in before. |
Listen: these things take time to reach ground zero |
Change hits so HARD and the world turns so slow |
These things take time and next time you’ll know |
But the beauty of a dream is you don’t let it go, |
You don’t ever let it go. |
Now how come a hand as gentle as yours |
Could soften a hard nut like this one? |
It’s a marvel to me The way you wrapped my heart up completely |
Whenever I roam I can’t seem to find |
As decent a love as the one I left behind |
Keep it slow, though, for me girl |
I never thought I’d sink in this deep |
Oh darling, I’m sinking like a bug in a peach. |
Listen: these things take time to reach ground zero |
Change hurts so good and the world screams hello |
These things take time but this time I know |
But the beauty of a dream is you don’t let it go, |
You don’t ever let it go. |
You don’t ever let it go. |
We won’t ever let it go. |
And I believe in the promises I made you |
And I mean to keep them over and over and over again |
Boom! |
there’s a cannon for the first twenty years |
Boom! |
there’s a cannon for the next. |
It’s a marvel to me |
I never thought I’d sink in this deep |
Oh darling, I’m sinking like a frog on a leaf |
