Lyrics A Dream Within a Dream - Dawn Of Winter

A Dream Within a Dream

Take this kiss upon the brow — And in parting from you now
You’re not wrong — You who deem — That my days have been a dream
Yet if hope has flown away — In a night or in a day
In a vision or in none — Is it therefore the less gone
All that we see — All that we see or seem
Is nothing but a dream within a dream
A dream within a dream — Just a dream within a dream
I stand amid the roar — Of a surf-tormented shore
And I hold within my hands — All these grains of golden sand
How few — Yet how they creep — Through my fingers to the deep
While I weep can I not save — One from the wave — Pitiless wave
(Act 2 — As envisioned by G.P.M.)
And tonight we’ll meet again — In a tide of dreams that never end
Neither alive nor dead — And tonight we’ll laugh and cry
We’ll unite and say goodbye — Fade away and stay
