What's In A Dream

[Chorus] What's in a dream when your life is over What happens after that? What's in a life when your dreams take over And you can't get better than what you got? When all the premonitions in the back of your head are in the forefront now You just play dead When all the apparitions of a broken past appear You take what's left and you walk on home I never had the things in life that make a man feel strong Only the possession of a passion for the song Once i give away my rock n' roll I'll be spending day and night asking for another soul [Repeat chorus] I never thought that anyone could ever understand Only knew my salvation was playing in a band Once i give away my rock n' roll I'll be crying day and night until my final fall [Repeat chorus] I traded everything the day the music died Now i'll do anything to get it back inside I've lived a million different worlds away from here Now every song that's sung reminds me of that fear [Repeat chorus] I'm a rebel in this world of kings and queens I've got my small town pride and my big city dreams But as i'm looking out the window at the river city I don't know what's to come But it sure sounds pretty to me
