Wasted a Dream

Wasting a dream that could have been mine Visiting a land of wonders sublime Walking the streets and not opening my eyes Im wasting a dream that could have been mine.
Watching the rainbow in black and white I fly with the eagle and dont relish the sight Feel the rain falling and cover my head Wasting a dream that might have been might.
Lips that caress and I turn them away Return home though dark eyes beg me to stay Read a novel and I frown at the wit The dream carries on but I dont care to play.
Walk past the roses and dont smell the perfume The world before me and I keep to my room I draw the blind and shut out the glory of the sight The dream becomes elusive like the ever present moon.
The sweet smell of success is bottled and sold The warmth of the sun becomes stale and cold The snow on the ground makes me curse and swear I turn to seize the dream, but my body is old.
Wasted a dream that could have been mine Too late to turn back Ive crossed the line Now to continue in my dreary existence Ive wasted a dream and cant turn back time.
