The Lilac Time - A Dream That We All Share lyrics

"Write down your dreams or you'll forget" She told me when we met "They hold the key to what you're feeling" Do you think I could be your mate And your one true friend? Let me tell you what I'm dealing She used to think the sun would shine forever But that's a dream that we all share To walk back down the avenues Doing all the things we used to do That's a dream that we all share Making love all afternoon Thinking I must marry her and soon I was running down your street I had lost my way I couldn't hear what I was saying You want the truth and so do I But it won't come from me You've got to talk as if you're praying She used to think that love would last forever But that's a dream that we all share You were walking down the aisle And when I turn around I see you smile That's a dream that we all share A union that won't fall apart And every word will come right from the heart When you're crying What do you see in your tears? Just more tears? She used to think the sun would shine forever But that's a dream that we all share To walk back down the avenues Doing all the things we used to do That's a dream that we all share A union that won't fall apart And every word you say comes from the heart
