lyrics: J. Morse © 1983 There are times when all I do is dream There are days when things aren't what they seem Why are you and I as one? There are moments when I look into the past There are dreams with characters but no cast You and I and the other two You say you love me, but we all know it's not true You love him. . . he loves her She loves me. . . I love you What are we gonna do? Troubles mount all around Where do we go from here? My heart cries out but there's no sound My body shakes with fear I pick up my pen and do What I've avoided far too long The time has come then To finally write a slow song There are nights when I lay alone and cry There are things that happen, I don't know why Why are things the way they are? There are ways of making it alright There are problems, it can't happen tonight The question answered from afar You say you love me, but we all know it's not true Dance with me. . . all through the night Keep together. . . hold me tight Why do we do it? The meaning's lost We live in fantasy, disregarding the cost What are we gonna do? Troubles mount all around Where do we go from here? My heart cries out but there's no sound My body shakes with fear I pick up my pen and do What I've avoided far too long The time has come then To finally write a slow song There are times when I sit down to play There are days when the notes just go away How come I always play the fool? There are moments when I even fool myself There are dreams that I have to put on a shelf Because I know they break the rules You say you love me, but we all know it's not true You love him. . . he loves her She loves me. . . I love you What are we gonna do? Troubles mount all around Where do we go from here? My heart cries out but there's no sound My body shakes with fear I pick up my pen and do What I've avoided far too long The time has come then To finally write a slow song |
