Dreams Lyrics

Will this little life

Always be mine

Will I always be watching

From the sidelines

With all this potential

That nobody knows

Without the credentials

There's nowhere to go

Eight years old you're told

Shoot for the stars and

You'll land on the moon

Is it only a story you're told

To cover the truth

Dreams, they look good on paper

But dreams, they won't always save ya

Like running through the rain

Taking pride in the pain

Knowing things might not change

But still doing the same

Dreams, they look good on paper, they do

But they won't always come true

Tired of always expecting the worst

The fear of rejection, it hurts

Every emotion, drowned in slow motion

A drop in the ocean alone

All the things they said I would be

Empty words and not prophecies

And if no one believes in me

How do I keep those

Dreams, they look good on paper

But dreams, they won't always save ya

Like running through the rain

Taking pride in the pain

Knowing things might not change

But still doing the same

Dreams, no they don't come easy

And dreams, I'm not who I should be

Tears on piano keys

Making it hard to breathe

I'm putting everything

On possibilities

I try to climb

But the mountains too high

Am I too far behind

At the back of the line

Dreams, they look good on paper, they do

And sometimes, they can come true
