Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hush now, don't you cry
Wipe away the teardrop from your eye
You're lying safe in bed
It was all a bad dream spinning in your head (Spinning, spinning, spinning)
[PreChorus]
Your mind tricked you to feel the pain
Of someone close to you leaving the game of life
So here it is, another chance
Wide awake, you face the day, your dream is over
Or has it just begun?
[Verse 2]
There's a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run through in the night
Relax, child, you were there
But only didn't realize and you were scared
[PreChorus]
It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years, and ride the whims of your mind
Commanding in another world
Suddenly, you hear and see this magic new dimension
[Chorus]
I
Will be watching over you
I
Am gonna help you see it through
I
Will protect you in the night
I
Am smiling next to you in silent lucidity
[Verse 3]
If you open your mind for me
You won't rely on open eyes to see
The walls you built within
Come tumbling down and a new world will begin
[PreChorus]
Living twice at once, you learn
You're safe from pain in the dream domain
A soul set free to fly
A round trip journey in your head
Master of illusion, can you realize?
Your dream's alive, you can be the guide, but
[Chorus]
I
Will be watching over you
I
Am gonna help you see it through
I
Will protect you in the night
I (I)
Am smiling next to you
