Book Of Dreams - Lyrics by Suzanne Vega


Lyrics
In my book of dreams [X3]

I took your urgent whisper

Stole the arc of a white wing

Rode like foam on the river of pity

Turned its tide to strength

Healed the hole that ripped in living


In my book of dreams [X3]


The spine is bound to last a life

Tough enough to take the pounding

Pages made of days of open hand


In my book of dreams [X3]


Number every page in silver

Underline in magic marker

Take the name of every prisoner

Yours is there my word of honor

I took your urgent whisper

Stole the arc of a white wing

Rode like foam on the river of pity

Healed the hole that ripped in living


In my book of dreams [X3]
