because i want to share
i stay awake each night
because i want to share
i write
because i want to care
i give up everything
because i want to care
i sing
to keep the energy
to keep it sensual
to keep the dream alive
until the one arrives
and i don't ask for anything
except some one to share
and i do not want anything
except someone to care
because i want to love
i stay awake each night
for all these lonely years
i write
because i want to care
i embrace everyone
because i want to care
i run
to keep the energy
to keep the stamina
to keep the dream alive
until the one arrives
and i don't ask for anything
except some one to share
and i do not want anything
except someone to care
i am the child inside
giving all i can give
i just want to love
i just want to live
i am the child inside
trying to stay true
to the dream of love
i keep here for you
because i want to share
i stay awake each night
because i want to share
i write
because i want to care
this song is incomplete
i made your children my children inside my head
so have you come back to take that illusion away?
i don't want to remember all the mean things we said
i just want to keep my dreams for one more day
once upon a time when i was young
my dreams were strong and flourished in my mind
and even though the best of them may not have come true
remembering them as i do can be kind
and if i embellish on them now and then
who's to say what was or might have been?
i made your heart my heart inside my memories
as beautiful as any dream love could ever know
so if you're here to wake me from my fantasies
no, no no, no, no, i don't want to let this dream go
once upon a time when i was young
my dreams were so beautiful in my mind
even even though the years have challenged them to fail
remembering them as do can be kind
so if i exaggerate them now and then
who's to say what could or might have been?
and what is real?...
anyway?
is it not what we feel
right now, today?
and if i feel love
and wish i could share it with you
is that so wrong
even if it's a dream that will not come true
what if it's still the best i can do?
so please don't tell me what to do inside my head
even if you don't want me part of your life's play
i'll remain devoted to my dream of loving you
and the children will be mine for one more day
i just want to keep my dream for one more day
once upon a time when i was young
my dreams were all i'd ever hoped to find
now i'm in those years where any day could be my last
so let my dreams be the last thought on my mind
and if i don't hear a single word you say
it's just cuz
i just want to keep my dreams for one more day
just leave me with my dreams for one more day
just let me have my dream...
for one more day
I smell in places she's yet to
let anyone else explore
as a body ages it
helps youth close the door
cultural stereotyping
or natural instinct win out
doing what I'm supposed to do
is just not what I'm about
so I'll let her love me
if that's what she wants to do
whatever anyone else believes
I'll believe her love is true
and if that makes me
an old fool or something worse
don't let it worry you
let it be my curse
and I'll tell you everything in the next verse
she is my blessing
she is my dream
she is everything
and if you don't know what I mean
you've never lived
you've never loved
and I can only
hope you do
before you reach your heaven above
or you missed the point of life
have faith in truth my friend
if you don't love like this in this life
and your god is kind
you'll get to try again
and it doesn't matter how old we are
or if we are women or men
when you find the one who is everything
you know your journey can end
you reach a place where fear of judgment no longer wins
and that, my friends, is where it all begins
so let her love you
if that's what she wants to do
whatever anyone else believes
believe her love is true
and if that makes you
an old fool or something worse
don't let it worry you
let the whole world curse
and understand the truth in the next verse
she is your blessing
she is your dream
she is everything
and if you know what I mean
you've know you've lived
you've know you've loved
and you can only
hope they do
before they reach their heaven above
or they've missed the point of life
have faith in truth my friend
if they don't love like this in this life
and their god is kind
they'll get to try again
to actualize the truth in the next verse
she is the blessing
she is the dream
she is everything
and when you know what it mean
you know you've lived
you know you've loved
and you can know you
have finally
reached your heaven above
right here, right now, in this life
have faith in truth my friend
if you love like this in this life time
you know your god is kind
and you'll get to love again
and again and again
you know your love is kind
and true
and you'll love again and again
you know your love is kind
and true
and you'll love again and again
love again and again
love will never end
if you
believe in love
and love again and again
and love again and again
and love again and again
of course
it had to be
look at the date
look at the time
how many years
can this go on
until I realize
how long
you've been gone
but I still dream
and I still hope
call me a fool
call me a dope
and I get high
on dreams of love
it is not you
I'm dreaming of
but I remember
being with you
and feeling love
so real and true
and nothing since
has been so right
so I'm alone
in bed at night
how many years
can this go on
until I realize
how long
you've been gone
but I still dream
and I still feel
there is one love
so true and real
and I believe
dreams still come true
so here's a song
written for you
of course
it had to be
look at the date
look at the time
how many years?
eternity
for that is what
love means to me
and maybe another time we'll hear the music
and maybe another time we'll write a song
and maybe another time we'll find what we're looking for
has been right here beside us all along
and maybe another time we'll fall in love
and maybe another time we'll share all we're dreaming of
and maybe another time we'll let all our secrets out
and maybe another time is what we're all about
another time, another place, another rhyme across your face
another smiles, another tears, another chance just disappears
another time, another story, another way to give into fear
as if the risk of rejection is worse than the loneliness
of all these wasted years
maybe we'll continue another time
and maybe another time
will appear
and we'll be here
and we'll be here
and we'll be here...
