(Both)
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop wanting you.
(George)
The worst that I've ever been hurt in my life
The first time I ever have wanted to die
Was the night when you told me you loved someone else
And asked me if I could forget.
(Both)
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop thinking you.
(Tammy)
I'd be like a flower unwanted in spring
Alone and neglected, transplanted in vain
To a garden of sadness where it's pedals would fall
In the shadow of undying pain.
(Both)
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop loving you.
(George)
You may teach the flowers to bloom in the snow
You may take a pebble and teach it to grow
(Both)
You may teach all the raindrops to return to the clouds
But you can't teach my heart to forget.
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop loving you
