The train is in the distance
What a way to go
Should have had a happy end
Like the storybook has told

Aching limbs that cling at night
To a faded song
Cultivate my thoughts again
It's cold to dream alone

CHORUS
Dreams Are For Lovers
Dreams are for fools
Wish I could dream again but right now, right now
Dreams Are For Lovers
Dreams Are For Fools
I wish that I could dream again

Misty-eyed reflection
Blur the smiling moon
Daddy holds his silence
My mother leaves the room

Distant voices question
Why the song-bird does not sing
Who will be the one to tell them
That some fool has clipped her wings?

CHORUS
Dreams Are For Lovers
Dreams are for fools
Wish I could dream again but right now, right now
Dreams Are For Lovers
Dreams Are For Fools
I wish that I could dream again

BRIDGE
Living in dreams is such a false paradise
But visiting make-believe can be so damn nice
Where did all the dreaming go?
I need to dream again

CHORUS
TAG
Dreams Telling me Keep dreaming
