Lyrics
All the lonely nights, and all the tears I've cried, all the moments wasted on the way here, to second guess your dreams is craziness it seems, but I've just got to tell you one more thing
Cs: If I knew then what I know now, I could change the world around somehow, but you've got to feel it, a dreamer knows what it's like
Ahead there lies a line of mountains yet to climb, we've wasted so much time on the way here, if my hill is too steep or my river's too deep, just lay me down to sleep, perchance to dream
Cs: + 'cause I only see what's truly exposed in this silent sunlight a garden grows, when the rain is fallin', a dreamer knows what it's like
