THERE'S ALWAYS HOPE... (I HOPE...)
for many years I lived with my dreams on a shelf
waiting for the right one to come along
and then I found the right one in you
I took all my dreams down and gave them all to you
you said you wanted them, you took them,
and now you keep them on your shelf
well all those years I wasn't ready I trusted myself
and now you're not ready so I'm trusting you
if I could keep my dreams on a shelf for most of this life
I can surely do the same for you
my dreams are on your shelf
please keep them safe and warm
even if you must ignore them for a while
I understand, I trust you
my dreams are on your shelf
please don't just bury them forever
even if it takes some time to return
I'll wait for you, I love you
not every song is beautiful
not every dream starts pretty
but I will leave mine in your hands
and let you decide my destiny
for you are the right one for me
and I believe it's just a matter of time
before we are both ready to dream again
at the same time, to write our rhyme
my dreams live on your shelf
keeping us both alive somehow
and I believe someday you'll find your way
back to me like we dreamed we would be
so my dreams sleep on your shelf
and I'll be here when you're ready
for I believe in your heart and soul
and we are each other's destiny
