You're my gilmmer of hope
|
In a time filled with doubt
|
Sprinkle soul soothing words
|
On my imperfect world
|
Like only an angel could
|
Can't come clean from the past
|
Or your dreams pay the cost
|
In the cold light of day
|
When your joy slips away
|
You're still a part of me
|
|
When will I give you up completely
|
Still wishing from the other side
|
|
(Chorus)
|
How can you smile so sweetly
|
Why do I still believe in filth and dreams
|
Filth and dreams
|
|
In the depths of your mind
|
There's a truth you can't hide
|
Happiness can't be gained
|
Till you've felt hurt and shame
|
Until you've suffered enough
|
|
Life's a wound that won't heal
|
No-one knows what you feel
|
In the cold light of day
|
When the joy slips away
|
You're still a part of me
|
|
Chorus
|
|
I said it may sound mean
|
But where there's dirt there are dreams
|
And they'll disappear as soon as you wipe away your tears
|
And wash your sadness clean, hey yeah
|
This mess we're in is where they joy begins
|
And on the road that lies ahead lies your future happiness
|
And all the hope in your heart, yeah
|
Hey you
|
Talking sideways and looking me in the eye
|
|
How can you smile so sweetly
|
Why do I still believe in filth and dreams
|
Filth and dreams
|
Filth and dreams
|
Filth and dreams
|
Filth and dreams
|
Filth and dreams
|
Filth and dreams
|
