Broken Dream

One more illusion shattered, one more broken dream Oh, that the morning brings the sun Gone are the days when I could bounce right back again See how the tears flow down like sweet summer rain Where does it leave me now? I find myself so free again Even the smallest traces of your sweet perfume Open the floodgates and I'm helpless Now, as the moonlight shadows, cast across my room Only the whispered words are heard in the night Only a silent prayer, I love you still, I always will Out of the dark, I stumbled into the light Only my fear has tumbled, I think, I always knew That I would run to you Somewhere there's children playing, somewhere far away Running with open arms to greet me Over the hill, the sunset dies and fades away I turn and I close the door with one last goodbye I will return no more, I'll take my heart and let it fly --- Broken Dream - Justin Hayward
