Lyrics

my daydream seems as one inside of you
though it seems hard to reach through this light
your blue and hopeless light

my daydream screams 'bitter 'til the end'
the love i share, true
but selfish to the heart
my heart, my sacred heart

my daydream
dream
my daydream
my daydream
dream
my daydream
