Dreaming In Color
I'm learning to dream in color again
I rest in sleep 'til the dawn creeps in
that door that opened leads to a garden
wide open views without the usual fences
the mountains purple with skies of blue
sweeping to the valley with wondrous hues
the breeze sings a song with a new tune
I know the reason--it's all you
the unanswered knocks on those old doors
millions of questions there weren't answers for
like a child's game I tallied the score
I couldn't win but went back for more
but now I dream in color again
I rest in sleep 'til the dawn creeps in
paid the piper for all past sins
the hurt of the loss is the best revenge
