In the Light of a Dream (Morgan Page)



I caught a glimpse ... of the future ...
I knew exactly ... what I saw
Tick Tock … Time was Running
I tried to warn them … it was coming ...
I tried to tell them … what I'd seen ...
I tried to show them … where I'd been

I saw the towers crumble ...
I saw the long distance fall
And your the one who thinks I am crazy ...
But you are the one with no sense at all

I want to live ...
In the light
Of a Dream
In a place
That we go ...
Beyond the world we know

In the layers, in between
There is life, and a dream
In a place ...
Tied to the Past ...
I should of known ...
It could not last ...
I saw the people rising ...
I saw the the distance close …
And your the one that thinks I am crazy
Yet the one who just runs and hides

I want to live ...
In the light
Of a Dream
In a place
That we go …
To a world that we both know

Why does the world ... get so lost ...
When it gets ... to be so heavy ...
How did the they … take control
Have lost or can we still go

Hold my Heart in Your Hands
Squeeze as hard ... as you can
How you give me ... Life to make me ...
Held my heart …  then You Saved me

I want to live ...
In the light of Dream ...
In a place that we go ...
Beyond the world we know
In the light of ...
Of a Dream
