The dawn breaks slowly in the east as day defeats the night The eccho of your voice that greets The feeble morning light Is the only answer to my silent prayer And the promises I never make You are always with me your always there In my dreams though I am wide awake And sometimes a forbidden glance Will give my heart away The light that kindled our romance May flicker through the gray All the gold and silver at the rainbows end All earthly goods I'll forsake For each shooting star a wish I send And I dream though I am wide awake You were the rolling tidal wave That swept my barren shores If you will let me share your day My life's forever yours I will never understand the reason why We fail to learn from our mistakes I will wait for you as the days go by With my dream though I am wide awake
