Replacing The Dream Lyrics

With each passing hour, the words I have chosen

fall clumsily from my soul

At a glance you passed through me, but on closer inspection

for that brief song, you made me whole

And as time settles in to turn me to stone,

I know that one glance would be more than enough

to bring us both home

And each month that passes offers different directions

so I leave us where we fell,

I still hear each promise that never was spoken

all were futures we couldn’t sell

There were oceans to swim, there were mountains to climb

and each time I surfaced you were further away

and guarded by time

And you are fading – far away

like an angel returned to the sky

And I’ll always hear the voice in the wind

ask ‘was it right to say goodbye?’

Walking this city, I keep my own business

where no one looks at what they see

I find myself searching for your face in a window

and your gentle touch to set me free

But you’re becoming unreal and just replacing the dream

that I cast to the ocean when I first saw your face

Time turns me to stone…

And you are fading – far away

like an angel returned to the sky

And I’ll always hear the voice in the wind

ask ‘was it right to say goodbye?’

And you are fading – far away

like an angel returned to the sky

And I’ll always hear the voice in the wind

ask ‘was it right to say goodbye?’
