Chasing A Dream

​

Following the road that is long and is winding
The straights and the narrows are now disappearing
Even though the sun is low
And shadows cast their way before
I blindly stumble on my way

Following the one that I know won’t stay
I’m chasing a dream, through the hills and the valleys
I’m chasing a dream, through the lakes and the pines
I’m chasing a dream, though she lies here with me
I’m chasing a dream which I know is not mine

​

Talking together you smile at me sideways
Give me that look with your smouldering eyes
Making excuses, please leave by the doorway
Knowing that you will be mine tonight
Knowing that you will be mine tonight

I’m chasing a dream, through the hills and the valleys
I’m chasing a dream, through the lakes and the pines
I’m chasing a dream, though she lies here with me
I’m chasing a dream which I know is not mine

​

I wait and watch you dressing your body
All that I wanted has passed with the night
Kiss me again but leave me with promise
The sun’s coming up, and so am I
The sun’s coming up, and so am I

I’m chasing a dream, through the hills and the valleys
I’m chasing a dream, through the lakes and the pines
I’m chasing a dream, though she lies here with me
I’m chasing a dream which I know is not
Chasing a dream which I know is not
Chasing a dream which I know is not mine
