Dennis DeYoung - Damn That Dream Lyrics

DAMN THAT DREAM
All my life I have tried
To make sense of this dream I'm chasing
Tryin' to silence the voice
Tellin' me I'm not good enough
Be the best you can be
Boy remember to keep on smilin
Try, try harder
And someday day soon you'll see
'Cause you can do better ya know
These are the words that I heard long ago
But to never give up or given in man its
Takin it's toll
Chorus
Damn the dream that steals the night
With restless thoughts till mornings light
In sleepless hours we ask is this what
Were made of
Damn that dream that robs the soul
That's cuts us all in half from whole
Damn the fears that know just what
We're afraid of.
Damn that dream
I love that dream

What the hell can you do
When your future is all in past tense
And the clock on the wall keeps spinning
Round and round
Well here's my point of view
When the world seems to
Make no damn sense
Why not take some other avenue
'Cause you can do better ya see
Excepting the fact there no guarantees
Cause every dream falls apart in the face
Of reality
Damn the dream that breaks your heart
That leaves you lost and torn apart
Searching for a clue to fi nd what you're
Made of
Damn the dream that promised you
The land of oz then dared come true
Leaving you to fi nd it's all a charade of
That damn dream I love that dream
Damn that dream I love that dream
Damn that dream I love that dream
