when you spend 4 years of your life
believeing in a stupid dream that won't ever come true
what are you supposed to think
when the dream walks up to you?
I'd like to put my arms around you
but I know you'd disappear
and I couldn't create you again
not even with gallons of tears
You're made out of vapor
I can only see your shadowy form
and if I would reach out to you
You'd turn away in scorn
Even though you're here right now
its so much harder than before
Before I thought I'd see you when I slept
and never any more
I'd like to be filled with joy
so much that my heart would break
I've given so much of my soul to you
and I don't know how much I can take
But I can't be happy now
because I know you'll never last
you'll evaporate in the morning light
leaving me to stare at empty glass
home
back
