Once my dreams came true Once but not for me I told them all to you But dreams are never clear If I must be alone Then let it be forever For it takes a troubled man To know the freedom of his fear No longer will I look For what can never happen No deeper can I long For what I know is dear If I must live my life In darkness and in shadow For it takes a troubled man To know the freedom of his fear If words could fade away And strangers go unanswered Let friendships all be gone And no acquaintance near For I would rather die Than love you for this moment For it takes a troubled man To know the freedom of his fear I think I’m in trouble Once again you come to me I think I’m in trouble Take this troubled man from me
