Analysis of When You Live Your Dreams



When do you live your dreams
you forget about them
they are buried underneath it all
from all oppresion
when do you live your dreams
in the day time when the sun
just welcomes the light of day
with its smiling face it says
hello to you
when do you live your dreams
at night when the moon shines
and the fullness brings it all
when do you live your dreams
when you close your eyes and see
visualize where you want to be
how does it feel to be there
does it take your breath away
tears through your eyes
when do you live your dreams
when you say hello to your
dearest friend who
puts a smile on your face
when do you live your dreams
when your child cries for you
and the love you feel is unexplainable
when do you live your dreams
when your fingers touch the instrument
of your choice
when music carries you into the unknown
it carries you to the depths
of your soul
when do you live your dreams
when you see happiness all around
when harmony only music can play
when do you live your dreams
when you look into your lovers eyes
and you see your soul
the whole world before you
when do you live your dreams
when you see all the beauty that
earth has to offer
and you take a deep breath to inhale it all
at that moment
do you live a dream?
