I had dreamt
Life would be all sweet and colourful
A little challenge here, a little grief there
They keep the journey real and meaningful
I had prepared to be strong
Rise above all hurdles
Ignore all hassles
Who knows what happened to that dream?
'Cos it's farther than it seems
So far I can't catch a glimpse


I've never really been happy
Not as I dreamt
I've had more grief than joy
Not what I saw
I've not attained all I'd imagined
Not as I thought
All I desire is a life so simple
Maybe not as simple as it sounds
All I have is not as I dreamt
All I am is not as I thought
Now, I'm dreaming I might deserve
Nothing more than I am
Only I've got more than I deserve


Who knows what happened to my dreams?
I wonder where our dreams go
