|
Once upon a moonless night |
|
I dreamed my world was one small room |
|
A thousand books of stories told |
|
All were black but one was gold |
|
I took the Book from off the shelf |
|
And held it to my frozen self |
|
A war within my spirit raged |
|
Through drops of salt on every page |
|
And my body was breaking |
|
For the words He was saying |
|
Be a light in the darkness |
|
Be a heart to the heartless |
|
When the world's lost its meaning |
|
Be the one who will still go on believing |
|
Then once upon a windless night |
|
Another dream in black and white |
|
A gentle man of flesh and bone |
|
He says this world is not our home |
|
And my body was breaking |
|
For the words He was saying |
|
CHORUS |
|
Though I was only dreaming |
|
His words kept burning me |
|
Over and over and over again |
|
CHORUS |
|
REPEAT CHORUS |
