Would you remain in dreams
Instead of facing reality
Where the world can't touch you
The warmth of the pretence
Of how it might be
Rather than what you go through
No one can drag you away
Back down into your despair
Of the darkness of your mind
Because you can ignore it all
The growing pangs of uncertainly
Of everything you must find
So reach up to the sky
Don't throw it all away
All we can ever do is try
To live it day to day

Would you remain in dreams
Instead of facing reality
Where the world can't touch you
The warmth of the pretence
Of how it might be
Rather than what you go through
No one can drag you away
Back down into your despair
Of the darkness of your mind
Because you can ignore it all
The growing pangs of uncertainly
Of everything you must find
So reach up to the sky
Don't throw it all away
All we can ever do is try
To live it day to day
