would you like to share a dream with me?
or are you too afraid to try.
have you been damaged beyond repair,
another victim of loves unholy war.
have you given up all hope…in yourself,
are you hiding from the world
with your heart buried in the sand.
have you forgotten how to laugh,
now don’t you think…it’s about time to begin.
open up the window let the fresh air in.
there’s so much sorrow in this room.
there is nothing left for you to sacrifice,
you’ve got nothing, nothin’ more to prove.
have you lost all faith…in yourself.
are you afraid to smile,
and step out that door.
are you trapped behind invisible lines
as life…slowly passes you by.
all that is behind you
all that waits ahead…
it is not as important,
as to what waits inside of you.
have you seen the stars tonight?
each one’s a wish waiting for you.
a million chances for a dream,
follow your heart and it will come true.
winning and losing…wasted words,
keeping you with one foot,
stuck in the past.
you’ve got to let go of who you were,
and become…all you can.
all you leave behind you…
all that waits ahead,
it doesn’t even come close,
as to what’s waiting … inside of you.
would you like to share a dream with me…
are you too afraid to try?
have you been damaged beyond repair,
another victim of lifes unholy war.
