A Dream Within a Dream

Life is but a dream within a dream Oh, how innocent that would seem If all were true, we shall redeem All our life lived in a dream. If we lose hope this day If we allow it to fly away, Nothing will ever be a dream But instead will change ev'ry day. We, like a gentle leaf, Will fly into the cushion of belief Gentle, as soft as it would seem, We are consoled in our grief. Though we all silently weep, Though life may seem so deep, Though it quietly will creep, Life is but a dream within a dream.
