The Life You Dream

There's a time that comes once every morning When you choose the kind of day you will have It comes in with the sun and you know you've begun To live the life you dream You can light all your candles to the dawn And surrender yourself to the sunrise You can make it wrong you can make it right You can live the life you dream Pray to Buddha pray to Krishna pray to Jesus Or the shadow of the devil on your wall Anyone you call, will come The night comes to you dressed in darkness Descends on your body like a blessing You can lie in its arms it will heal your heart You can life the life you dream You can wake in this vale of tears You can laugh like a child again You can make it right you can make it wrong You can live the life you dream What you see and you believe is not the answer To anything that matters very much Anything you touch...is gone In the valleys you look for the mountains In the mountains you search the rivers You have no where to go you are where you belong You can live the life you dream If you call him your master will find you Seven bars on the gate will not hold him Seven fires burning bright only give him delight You can live the life you dream All your treasure buys you nothing but the moment All your poverty has lost you everything Love will teach your dream...to sing --- The Life You Dream - Judy Collins
