love was never enough throughout time, yet some give it up

well, you kept me standing alone

if only i could have one dance i would move on my own

in tattered daydreams that slip through the night

i'm prince, king, warrior, and i'm doing things right

but every daydream leaves me awake all the night

if i was a bird, spread my wings, and take off and fly

yeah yeah yeah yeah



i had the swirl and ache from sprays of honeysuckle

that when they're gathered break will dew on the knuckle

i had small sweets but those seemed small when i was young

the petal of the rose was stung

yeah, na-na na-na



so in this dream i walk with my head held high

cause here i'll live forever and never die

i see my soul straight ahead with his eyes locked on mine

if i should wake right now, i'd rather be blind

and in these dreams with love, together we'd stand

i'm slipping, falling to earthward and i can't reach your hand

yeah yeah yeah yeah



i had the swirl and ache from sprays of honeysuckle

that when they're gathered break will dew on the knuckle

i had small sweets but those seemed small when i was young

the petal of the rose was stung

yeah, na-na na-na



my eyes open wide and i've lost myself

i'm laying here in my bed, there's nobody else

surrounded by questions, hate, and blood soaked war

i clasp my hands together and pray, ask what it's all for



it's easy for me to slip away and live on the air

if we'd all just let love live we could all meet there

but time has its way of saying it's time to move on

so off to my kingdom i go where i feel at home

yeah yeah yeah yeah



i had the swirl and ache from sprays of honeysuckle

that when they're gathered break will dew on
