Dreams aren't anything we see
hope isn't something for which we strive
often it always just seems to be
and we're always wanting to feel alive
Mysteries leave us with such wonder
careful we are to avoid that danger
we only take on what we can hold
anything else is just regret and anger
Memories have taught us to smile
they have given us time to pause
some leave us for a little while
until they remind what we've caused
Sounds become that first constant
the music and words to replay
all of them reminders we wanted
that we needed to hold on and stay
Feelings emote upon our soul
we all know what it means
as life takes and we pay tolls
often coming apart at the seams
we feel it deep within our soul
