Dwight Evan Young - Thinking & Dreaming Lyrics

(Thinking)

I've been thinking about you all day and night
Till you fade away
Reminiscing over the last thing you said to me
Gone like the wind through the trees

But I couldn't be who you wanted me to be
And I never saw what you needed me to see
I am subdued
Thinking of you, and a
Promise made under the moon
The moon...
I'll find you

I've never been great with long goodbyes
So I'll try to be brief
I don't say what I mean, but I mean what I say and
I'm so sick of wearing my heart and my soul on my sleeve
But I find no relief

And I couldn't be who you wanted me to be (No more long goodbyes)
And I never saw what you needed me to see (Right before my eyes)
I am restrained
By the cage of my brain
Echo the words; "I love you"
"Love you"...
I'll find you

(Dreaming)

I'm dreaming of a nice, warm, bright
California day every night
I feel it in my bones; I'll find you there
Till then my heart is waiting to ignite!

In a room of dark and shattered glass
I claw through papers from a tattered past
Scrawled in a letter no one saw
These words are empty but they say it all...

California
I can't stop dreaming of you
California
You're always too good to be true

The summer's midnight sounds remain serene
Surrounded by the muted blues and greens
I wonder if I'll ever miss this town
Tonight's the night I leave this in-between

The gravel's crunch is song; sublime and sweet
While in my tread I fight this urge to sleep
In every dream I have of you I've drowned
No sound can find me but those words repeat

Jump into the
Sparkling water
Isn't it intoxicating?

Take the air in
Let it fill you
Can't you feel your soul become new?

(California
I can't stop dreaming of you
California
You're always too good to be true)

On the mountain
In the sunshine
Don't you feel a new beginning?

In the moonlight
Made of stardust
Become one with all you're giving

Everything is
What you make it
Every dream can be a future

Let your heart stay
For a moment
Won't you say it's like coming home?
