Dreams fade away too fast
Just one night for all these moments to last
Then you wake up and reality hits you like a wave
With all the things you have to do
And all the time that you don't have to waste
But in the midst of these unfamiliar times
Just look around and see what's right there before your eyes
Before your eyes
Oh we're better off in our dreams
And oh we're better off in our dreams
Look upon a star or throw a wish into a well
It seems like all your hopes and dreams were right there before you fell
But the distance between reality and in your dreams
Is the place where you are
And where you want to be
And in the midst of these complicated lies
Just close your eyes and see what's right there before you rise
Before you rise
Oh we're better off in our dreams
And oh we're better off in our dreams
There's a man on the corner
If you'd just look around you would see
There is struggle all around us
But that's not always how it has to be
Oh we're better off in our dreams
And oh we're better off in our dreams
And oh we're better off in our dreams
But that's not how it has to be
