They say life is a gift
And I give it all I can give… and then some
Always strive for the truth
I’ve torn it down, cut it loose…..To get to
You
And all you do
I’ve always known you in the back of my mind
You’ve helped me through
Oh I needed the dream…yes I did
more than I liked to believe
Gave you more than I had,
Sometimes the truth makes you sad, mad but there was
You
you came through like I knew
I’ve always known you in the depths of my heart
You held it… through
I had to do what I needed to do
To be reminded
To be reminded
Yeah I needed the dream
More than a life it so seemed
Sometimes I wonder if you knew…somewhere
Only that thought makes me blue
doesn't matter anyway cause there’s
always you
