Lyrics
Even when the sky is black and I can't see one star,
I'll light up a candle and swear to myself it's not over
'Cuz I was raised to believe that good ends up on top
But I have grown and seen the world and learned light falls
Is it true that what goes up must always come down?
In my wildest dreams love leads the way
In my wildest dreams love stays
There are people on the TV saying they're leading us through the rain
But I wake from nightmares of bombs flying through the sky like airplanes
Is it true that what goes up must always come down?
In my wildest dreams love leads the way
In my wildest dreams love stays
And you gave me your word you'd never leave this love, you swore
Your last words were "it hurts me too" as you walked out of my door
In my wildest dreams love leads the way
In my wildest dreams you stay
In my wildest dreams love leads the way
In my wildest dreams love stays
Even when the sky is black and I can't see one star,
I'll light up a candle and swear to myself it's not over
