Hangin' On To A Dream

In the dark when all is still
We've burned the midnight oil till
There's nothing left to share but smoky dreams
Still I can barely leave your side
In your arms I long to hide
And revel in the fire's dying gleam

My heart is breaking before you
But I can't live without this pain
My soul is bleeding for you
Won'dring if you feel the same

And as you whisper your goodbye
All I can do is softly sigh
I know you have to leave before its light
But tell me babe, before you go,
There's just one thing I've got to know
Before you fade away into the night

My heart is breaking before you
But I can't live without this pain
My soul is bleeding for you
Won'dring if you feel the same

Is this love? Is this real?
Is this everything you wanted to feel?
Is this the end, or have we just begun?
How can two hearts so far apart
Still beat as one?
Is this true? Is it everything it seems?
Or is it wrong to keep hangin' on
Hangin' on to a dream?
Hey, yeah

I want to whisper that I love you
And that no distance could keep us apart
I know that I'll be thinking of you
But will you think of me
When you're alone in the dark?

In the dark beneath the sky
Where starlight sings a lullabye
There's nothing left to say but fond farewells
But moonlight shining in your eyes
Shows tears you're longing to disguise
Your face says more than words can ever tell

My heart is breaking before you
But I can't live without this pain
My soul is bleeding for you
But I know you feel the same

This is love, this is real
This is everything I wanted to feel
This can't be the end, we've only just begun
Because two hearts, though far apart
Still beat as one
This is true, its everything it seems
Long after the dawn, we'll keep hangin'on
Hangin' on to a dream…
Hey, yeah
Hangin' on to a dream.
