Dream Away

Dream away, child

Let your dreams run wild

Or a lifetime of worries

Might claim you

Dream away, child

Let your dreams run wild

Or the years and the tears shed

Might claim you

For the last time we have tasted love's sweet tears

By the fire's glow

If our hearts are strong, there'll be no long

Goodbyes when it's time to go

But the strongest hearts are sometimes broken

As the deepest vows aren't always spoken

And the greatest wounds, we hide inside ourselves

Where they never show

Dream away, child

Let your dreams run wild

Or a lifetime of worries

Might claim you

Dream away, child

Let your dreams run wild

Or the years and the tears shed

Might claim you

When the winter weds the Northern wind

The child they bear is snow

And the branches bow like worried bridesmaids

But the trees will grow

Sun and Earth in time will come together

God will give us back our summer weather

But the memories of that first sweet taste of love

Pass away so slow

Dream away, child

Let your dreams run wild

Or a lifetime of worries

Might claim you

Dream away, child

Let your dreams run wild

Or the years and the tears shed

Might claim you

When there's no room left to live inside ourselves

Do we dream away?
