| The beauty of a dream is you don’t let it go,
|
| You don’t ever let it go.
|
| Once in a while a girl comes along
|
| And opens your heart like a spam tin
|
| Just how long can it take?
|
| A bow bends, a bow breaks
|
| And then when its time to return the key
|
| She’ll flash you a smile as she slams the door
|
| But you didn’t have to do that to me To show me just how cruel love could be And cruel’s a show I kinda starred in before.
|
| Listen: these things take time to reach ground zero
|
| Change hits so HARD and the world turns so slow
|
| These things take time and next time you’ll know
|
| But the beauty of a dream is you don’t let it go,
|
| You don’t ever let it go.
|
| Now how come a hand as gentle as yours
|
| Could soften a hard nut like this one?
|
| It’s a marvel to me The way you wrapped my heart up completely
|
| Whenever I roam I can’t seem to find
|
| As decent a love as the one I left behind
|
| Keep it slow, though, for me girl
|
| I never thought I’d sink in this deep
|
| Oh darling, I’m sinking like a bug in a peach.
|
| Listen: these things take time to reach ground zero
|
| Change hurts so good and the world screams hello
|
| These things take time but this time I know
|
| But the beauty of a dream is you don’t let it go,
|
| You don’t ever let it go.
|
| You don’t ever let it go.
|
| We won’t ever let it go.
|
| And I believe in the promises I made you
|
| And I mean to keep them over and over and over again
|
| Boom! |
| there’s a cannon for the first twenty years
|
| Boom! |
| there’s a cannon for the next.
|
| It’s a marvel to me
|
| I never thought I’d sink in this deep
|
| Oh darling, I’m sinking like a frog on a leaf |
