| Once upon a moonless night
|
| I dreamed my world was one small room
|
| A thousand books of stories told
|
| All were black but one was gold
|
| I took the Book from off the shelf
|
| And held it to my frozen self
|
| A war within my spirit raged
|
| Through drops of salt on every page
|
| And my body was breaking
|
| For the words He was saying
|
| Be a light in the darkness
|
| Be a heart to the heartless
|
| When the world’s lost its meaning
|
| Be the one who will still go on believing
|
| Then once upon a windless night
|
| Another dream in black and white
|
| A gentle man of flesh and bone
|
| He says this world is not our home
|
| And my body was breaking
|
| For the words He was saying
|
| Though I was only dreaming
|
| His words kept burning me
|
| Over and over and over again
|
| REPEAT CHORUS |
