Faded Dreams
Written by Wilfred Mellers, Sunday, November 18,2012

Now I know dreams don't come true
For I won't be sharing them with you
No walking in the park
No sharing kisses in the dark

No showing you off to my friends
No spending romantic weekends
No more rides for all it's worth
No taking you to the land of my birth

Your tender hands I wanted to hold
Now the truth begins to unfold
Now the music has died
Just because to me, you lied

In time all things reveal
Secrets no longer conceal
Happy life to me was ideal
Now I know how you truly feel

Your actions show you don't care
When I call you're not there
To comfort you I did my best
Put above all the rest

Gave you all that I could give
I would go hungry so you could live
Hours with you I did spend
Not even a letter you would send

Now my dreams have faded away
But I'll be alright come what may
Things time will not erase
Questions pondered you couldn't face

No more time for you I'll waste
No longer for the breeze, I will chase
Dreams don't always come true
For god knows I had really loved you
