"A Dream Is All I Know" lyrics

"A Dream Is All I Know"

A dream is all I know
Is all I've got to show for my being here
It's all so clear
As much as I have to fear, there's nothing really mine
Just borrowed time

And in the morning, when you wake up
Living straight down the line
Why are you here?
In vain you cry out
And no one seems to hear

A dream is all I know
Is all I've got to show for my being here
It's all so clear
As much as I have to fear, there's nothing really mine
Just borrowed time
And I haven't had the chance to get things

Right, girl
And love isn't something you know
The more you choose it, you're bound to lose it
Leave it and let it go
Or grow

A dream is all I know
Is all I've got to show for my being here
It's all so clear
As much as I have to fear, there's nothing really mine
Just borrowed time
And I haven't had the chance to get things

And in the evening, when you give up
And you pour a glass of wine
The answer was near
You hold your hand out and watch it disappear

A dream is all I know
Is all I have to show for my being here
It's all so clear
As much as I have to fear, there's nothing really mine
Just borrowed time
And I haven't had the chance to get things right
