Lyrics
"I'm at your feet, my love
Tell me what else you need
If nothing, I'll be quiet
Not to disturb your dream
Cause you're so special, love
Your dreams must all come true
I'll put myself on hold
To give my all to you."
And so I did... time went on as happiness passed me by
Until one night, when I opened my eyes and cried
What about my dreams?
Did you think they'd die?
You made sure they were underfed,
Weak and kicked to the ground
But they are still alive!
My time was only yours
My mind and my soul too
I was on life-support
Giving my blood to you
I'm sorry, love... it's my fault, but I won't do it no more
And if you didn't hear me, I'll scream it once more
What about my dreams?
Did you think they'd die?
You made sure they were underfed,
Weak and kicked to the ground
But they are still alive!
You had a bright dream
That made mine look pale
I followed you blindly
Charmed by this fairytale
"It will be our dream!"
You said with love in your eyes
But your love was eating me alive!
What about my dreams?
Did you think they'd die?
You made sure they were underfed,
Weak and kicked to the ground
But they are still alive!
What about my dreams?
Don't you think it's time
To give back my soul
And maybe lend yours
So they'll come to light?!
