dying in a dream

Caught in a haze as the morning breaks through

Sun rips the shades in my room

I bury my head in my pillow

In thoughts of you

I see us both in a memory made

Riding an old carousel

I forget why we're laughing

But I guess it's just as well

Ooh-ooh

Ooh

I thought I was dying

But it, was only a dream

I thought I'd be crying

But it, only brought me peace

Not on the surface

But somewhere underneath

The things that we can't let go

Are impossible to keep

Sprinting as fast as my lungs can take

Though, I don't know what from

But the wind feels so good

And my legs are now just getting numb

It's the absence of things that are most present now

The joy and the pain of it all

Is that we can't go back

To times that we can recall

Ooh-ooh

Ooh

I thought I was dying

But it, was only a dream

I thought I'd be crying

But it, only brought me peace

I might not be certain

But it's strongly my belief

The things that we can't let go

Are impossible to keep

The things that we can't let go

Are impossible to keep

The things that we can't let go

Are impossible
