Lyrics
VERSE:
Didn?t I support you when times were tough
Didn?t I give you everything, wasn?t it enough
Didn?t I listen when you were alone
Didn?t I take your hopes and dreams and make them my own
Preoccupied with making sure your wish came true I didn?t
Stop and take the time to see if that wish was mine
CHORUS:
Look through my eyes into my soul
These are just borrowed dreams
You?ll recognize them as your own
They are but borrowed dreams
VERSE:
I?ve spent so long helping someone else
I?d almost forgotten how to care for myself
I feel like I?m fading, giving into fear
I had direction once but now it?s not so clear
I won?t allow myself to sacrifice the life I?ve always
Known you?d never give but always hoped that I would live
CHORUS:
Look through my eyes into my soul...
BRIDGE:
These borrowed dreams I give them back
I do not need them anymore
I used them well while they were mine
They helped to remind me what we?re dreaming for
VERSE:
I do not resent you, instead I admire
The lesson you taught me about pursuing desire
So please look inside me now, see how I yearn
To share with you everything, together we?ll learn
In my mind?s eye I see a vision of the future where the
Two of us belong, how could that be wrong
CHORUS:
Look through my eyes into my soul...
