Any more and I might learn to leave things as they stand People do what they like, that much is sobering But nothing less than a miracle could answer to all my pleas Hope for my wish, the waves of a parting sea I could use a little thunder And lightning from the sky So should I leave these precious dreams Will not die How to live by the rules when I've read this book before There's no courage to prove, just your reasoning Faces of forgotten men much too afraid to ask
Like cogs in a wheel, we long to keep turning back I've got to keep from going under While running for my life So should I leave these precious dreams Will not die After years of uncertainty I wait for the final round Losing my place, you call me to calm you down I could use a little thunder And in someone to confide So should I leave these precious dreams Will not die A little thunder and lightning So when I leave these precious dreams Will not die
