A Dream That We All Share

"Write down your dreams or you'll forget"

She told me when we met

"They hold the key to what you're feeling"

Do you think I could be your mate

And your one true friend?

Let me tell you what I'm dealing

She used to think the Sun would shine forever

But that's a dream that we all share

To walk back down the avenues

Doing all the things we used to do

That's a dream that we all share

Making love all afternoon

Thinking I must marry her and soon

I was running down your street

I had lost my way

I couldn't hear what I was saying

You want the truth and so do I

But it won't come from me

You've got to talk as if you're praying

She used to think that love would last forever

But that's a dream that we all share

You are walking down the aisle

And when I turn around I see you smile

That's a dream that we all share

A union that won't fall apart

And every word will come right from the heart

When you're crying

What do you see in your tears?

Just more tears?

She used to think the sun would shine forever

But that's a dream that we all share

To walk back down the avenues

Doing all the things we used to do

That's a dream that we all share

A union that won't fall apart

Every word you say comes from the heart
