Dare To Dream

Shutters they hide your eyes Laughter, a distant song Gone is the beguiling grin How is it possible, yet we knew all along There was no escape, heaven couldn't last Caution to the wind, angels flying past Whispered "Dare to dream" Lovers don't choose, they only feel Ensnared or enchanted They sing and dance, then weep To win, to lose, it's all the same Curse fate to hell, shielded in love's name Left to die, hearts awaken at last Defying dead desires, angels flying past Shouting "Dare to dream!" Tired greys transformed electric blue Hearts beating fast push fire through veins Purple hazed with need, reluctant But dazed by sudden greed Tempting touches, violence tamed Shredding at perfect beauty braved Bodies melded, witness the innocence craved Love denied, mourn the cost Wrap me in anguish At least I know what it is I lost Cancel the celebration, then rejoice Grief has no color If love was not the choice Heal my heart with tears of blue and green Lifted on angels wings I Dared to Dream.
