As We Dream

As we dream in this sleep, close to secrets we keep Who knows what is really in there deep down under all the surface seen As we dream of the past, things we hoped that would last We can see time twist and turning to spin and take away beloved things So maybe what will be will be no matter what we do But somehow that just can't be right, and I don't think it's the whole truth As we dream and make plans, Try and hold time in our hands Shifting winds that shape our houses will blow in ways that nobody knows As we dream -------- But isn't that what life's about? No waving a magic wand The deepest freedom that we have is mostly how we respond As we dream what may come, this deep pain and big fun It's always only right now we have to make our reality
