I want to know.
where do dreams go
when they die?

Do they fly with the tears that have dried?
With the sunsets we've missed
and the end of the dawn,
with the last notes of that song,
we can't recall anymore.

~

Do they live with the memories,
that have faded from our lives,
with the prayers and the wishes,
with the breaths and the sighs,

at the start of the rainbow
or at the end of the stars?
Do dreams go to heaven
with the ones that have passed?

~

Do dreams go to somewhere,
where perhaps they might come true?
Will hope and faith guide them
and lead them, from me, to you?

Don't make the mistake of living
broken down and broken hearted
Your heart is all you may ever have
after dreams have all departed.

I hope they don't feel like they've died,
that this pain is only mine

and my dreams will float upon the skies

find a better place

to lie.
