  • Once your dreams
    Come knockin' at your door
    It's time to realize
    You aren't dreamin' anymore
    And once your life
    Is set to settle down
    Take a look around you
    No more dreamin' to be found

    So why, then
    Are you cryin'?
    It was you
    Who denied them
    And no amount of tears
    Can roll back all the years
    And bring back all your dreams from yesterday

    Once a life
    Believes it's got it set up
    A closer look reveals
    Just how empty you can feel
    And once a dream
    Is finally put to bed
    Rest up, sleepyhead
    You might as well be dead

    So why, then
    Are you cryin'?
    It was you
    Who denied them
    And no amount of tears
    Can roll back all the years
    And bring back all your dreams from yesterday Writer/s: MacBriare Samuel Lanyon DeMarco
