While in these days of quiet desperation
|
As I wander through the world in which I live
|
I search everywhere for some new inspiration
|
But it's more than cold reality can give
|
If I need a cause for celebration
|
Or a comfort I can use to ease my mind
|
I rely on my imagination
|
And I dream of an imaginary time
|
|
I know that everybody has a dream
|
Everybody has a dream
|
And this is my dream, my own
|
Just to be at home
|
And to be all alone...with you
|
|
If I believe in all the words I'm saying
|
And if a word from you can bring a better day
|
Then all I have are these games that I've been playing
|
To keep my hope from crumbling away
|
So let me lie and let me go on sleeping
|
And I will lose myself in palaces of sand
|
And all the fantasies that I have been keeping
|
Will make the empty hours easier to stand
|
|
I know that everybody has a dream
|
Everybody has a dream
|
And this is my dream, my own
|
Just to be at home
|
And to be all alone...with you
|
