Dream on

But only in my dreams
Will I ever get to be
That kid In my dreams 
you took that from me 
You took that from me 
But only in my dreams
Will I ever get to be
A smart young man 
As according to his plan
You took that from me 
You took that from me 
But only in my dreams
Will I ever get to be
That picture perfect man 
Beautiful wife at my hand
A happy home and some land 
You took that from me 
You took that from me 
But only in my dreams
Will I ever get to be
The world's greatest dad
To the beautiful little girl I had
She was my world 
My Destiny
You took her from me 
You took that from me 
But only in my dreams
Will I ever get to be
The me I was truly meant to be 
You took that from me 
You took that from me 
Now as you see 
There's nothing left of me
You took all I ever had 
And all my dreams are sad
I will never get to be 
The man in my dreams
I will never get to feel 
The love of what is real 
I will never get to know 
Just how far life will go
I'll never get to see my destiny 
You took that from me 
You took that from me
