Chasing Dreams
Chasing Dreams
Feelin’ the grove of a sweet tune,
letting it fill me, my spirit rises,
wants to dance in the dark
out in a grove that doesn’t exist
except in my mind, my sweet imagination
just like most of my happy places in my life,
lost in an imaginary world where I can’t really be
but it never stops me from chasing the dream.
In my imaginary world love chases me,
laughter replaces the silence
which has become so loud in my little house
where I dance down the halls
because I’ve drank a little too much,
loneliness is a dark place I want to escape,
I want to find my place in someones heart
who knows true unconditional love,
who doesn’t take away from the perfection
of the dream that never seems to come true.
Just another joe who comes and go.
Why can’t I find the one
who knows how to escape the imagination?
I fall into the music escaping the silence,
it never comes to an end, letting it fill me,
my spirit rises and I watch her smiling,
watch her dancing with the magical man
who holds her when she hurts,
warms her when she’s cold,
catches her tears of joy cus she’s so fallen
in that imaginary place called love,
oh how I wish I could be her,
how i wish I wasn’t so alone,
so I let the music fill me – fill me
because there’s no one else to fill
that empty dark place for so long longing,
longing to just know the feeling of love
without it falling apart – falling apart,
like it always seems to do.
Yeah in my imaginary world love chases me,
where laughter replaces the silence
Please, stop, I can’t stand it anymore,
loneliness is a dark place I want to escape,
I want to find my place in someone’s heart,
someone who isn’t just a part – yeah just a part
of my imagination, not just my spirits lover
who I can’t touch, just another joe who finally stays,
why can’t I find the one, the one that’s real?
he’s lost in my imaginary world where I long to be,
but in spite of the disappointment and tears that follow,
in spite of the pain that never ends
like the silence that covets me,
it never stops me, no it never stops me
from chasing the dream.
