I Built My World Around Your Dreams

It was dark 
Yet there stood light
We found our way
Into the night

Covered in lace
Yet skin all bare 
Struggling without care 
For that very gold

The night whispered our names
And then we took flight beyond the hazels 
In a different world we were found.
Until this very moment we finally did break the yoke
Life for us had been a big bad joke
