In quiet hours, awake I to each breath you take And I what you dream about
How far we've we were young Our now undone So I what you dream about
In mind I be soaring Pushing to greater heights But Icarus, the flames are real And dreams into nightmares
I know my wings might once up in the sky But I don't want to fall, I to fly
I never saw myself as one who went outside the Our life's momentum takes us, and in an it's behind us
It's sacrilege to take advantage of the But what uncertainties that work to cloud our mind? If our causes us to go astray, Who can help us try to find our
I never saw myself as one life was just a race out of control But in the mirror I see the lines grow on my face
It's sacrilege to take advantage of the But what about uncertainties that work to our mind? If our perception us to go astray, Who can us try to find our way?
When I back on all that's happened When I look on choices I have made I regret the contours of my path? The broken that I have paved?
We're only given so many sunny days We're only given so much time to a life Our all along the way construct a maze And our time is up we could be trapped inside Lost in fantasies and to return
While we are building, tearing down or plans The days are vanishing, the won't fail to turn Choices consequences, limiting our future And yet the of outcomes cannot be discerned Make wisely, child
It's hard to look around me now at I have And not derive contentment it all Dreams made real, and the future unforeseen has out well But is contentment the of growth? Could I have overlooked what might mattered most?
You must have been something else you were younger You have been something else when you were free When all you had was time and the world of choices was yours And you me You must have been something when you were younger You must have been something else you were free When all that you had was time and the world of was yours
We spend half our repairing bridges that our selfish actions helped destroy But still so hard for us to recognize that a life is such a fragile toy We spend half our lives making disguises; we perfect and use as our tools spend all of our remaining years searching for someone we cannot fool
At day's end we'll throw out our disguises nothing to defend At day's end we'll pick up all the and learn to live again
When you look on all that's happened, would you do it all again? That's the honest of our lives Knowing then what you know now, would you choose me once That's the question most weight at day's end
I know my wings have once up in the sky But if you're falling, there's still time to fly And looking with at the choices I have made I know self-defeating to carry regret unto my grave
I know that a reason why my road returns to you And why, despite the we both had to fight through We both have had our doubts, but I think we know it's That you the best of me, and I the best of you
And all our struggles, and time we've cried They're meaningless in our embrace 'Cause still standing, and nothing can prevail Against a love that's to be
At day's end we put down our disguises with to defend At day's end we up all the pieces and learn to love again
