This Dream Of You

Together Through Life recording sessions - October 2008  

How long can i stay in this nowhere café
'Fore night turns into day
I wonder why i'm so frightened of dawn.
All i have and all i know
Is this dream of you
Which keeps me living on.

There's a moment when all old things
Become new again
But that moment might have come and gone.
All i have and all i know
Is this dream of you
Which keeps me living on.

I look away but i can see in it
I don't want to believe but i keep believing it
Shadows dance upon the wall
Shadows that seem to know it all.

Am i too blind to see? is my heart playing tricks on me?
I'm lost in the crowd
All my tears are gone.
All i have and all i know
Is this dream of you
Which keeps me living on.

Everything i touch, seems to disappear
Everywhere i turn, you are always here
I'll run this race until my earthly death
I'll defend this place with my dyin' breath.

From a cheerless room an a curtain gloom
I saw a star from heaven fall
I turned and looked again but it was gone.
All i have and all i know
Is this dream of you
Which keeps me livin' on.
