Nightmares' Tale
In this life
I was born dreaming
Looking for a place, so far away.
In this life
I have run from
Shadows and demons a like.
This past has haunted
Kept me up at night
I see you
In the shadows, why, oh why, do you try?
In this life
I have dreamed
Of a place, so far away.
One to hide my troubles
Let those memories slip away
I have dreamed of being safe,
Hoped that it would be my turn to stay
But this past is haunting
It's kept me up at night.
I see you
But the time's already flown by.
In this life
I've dreamt of shelter.
Of comfort and words of the wise.
A guiding star, a heart of hope, a journey so long, a river too wide.
