The dream has come and gone
|
The earth lumbers on
|
The dream is back in space
|
Back where it came from
|
|
The dream has gone away
|
The earth could not play
|
The earth just spins in place
|
Throwing things away
|
|
And I am left behind
|
Corrupted crushed and blind
|
All for a dream
|
That in truth was never really mine
|
|
But who was the dream?
|
Was it you or was it me?
|
I truly loved
|
Which is harder to do
|
Than to dream of
|
|
Don't get me wrong
|
I wanted to go
|
I wanted to see
|
I wanted to know
|
|
No, don't get me wrong
|
I wanted to go
|
I wanted to see
|
I wanted to know
|
|
I wanted to dream
|
I just didn't know
|
How hard it would be
|
When the dream had to go
|
When the dream...
|
|
But who was the dream?
|
Was it you or was it me?
|
Who was the dream?
|
Was it you or was it me?
|
|
I truly loved
|
Which is harder to do
|
Yes, it's harder to do
|
Yes, it's harder, harder, harder to do
|
Than to dream of
|
|
The dream has come and gone
|
