Life is a dream
You were a beautiful dream, where I lost my way,
Oh, my faithless life, I lived for you each day.
My first love was you, my final dream come true,
But you shattered all my hopes, and my heart anew.
You showed me lofty dreams, making strangers of mine,
Those I loved, you separated, leaving me in decline.
I wonder what I did, every dream lies in vain,
Now my imagination's gone, leaving me in pain.
In your love, I was helpless, lost and confined,
For your sake, I lost myself, left behind.
I took your every sorrow as joy and delight,
Your every truth, I denied, in endless fight.
Your colors and forms, so captivating and bright,
I negated myself, lost in your lovely sight.
Leaving all behind, I worshiped only you,
You were a beautiful dream, where I lost my way anew.
Oh, my faithless life, I lived for you each day,
You were a beautiful dream, where I lost my way.
