The Waterfall of Dreams

I once had a dream or did my dream have me Sometimes the truth can be real hard to see I lived in the shadows of desire and lust Landing where I may like particles of dust My heart it was empty and my soul was so tired As I tried to mask my pain by staying wired Then one day something special happened to me I closed my eyes, which enabled to see In the same way as we scrape the burnt off our toast The Lord delivered me from my addictive host Then he opened up my eyes and taught me to see Through the eyes of a man living honest and free Everyone life is a river that flows down a hill It’s an emotional ride full of heartache and thrills But just beyond the rapids as rough as they seem Put your faith in the Lord and ride the waterfall of dreams
