[00:19.84]Under a blackened sky
[00:25.32]far beyond the glaring streetlights
[00:29.56]sleeping on empty dreams
[00:33.78]the vultures lie in wait
[00:38.50]You lay down beside me then
[00:43.57]you were with me every waking hour
[00:48.68]so close I could feel your breath
[00:56.45]
[00:58.20]When all we wanted was the dream
[01:03.08]to have and to hold that precious little thing
[01:08.16]like every generation yields
[01:12.81]the new born hope unjaded by their years
[01:20.65]
[01:26.90]Pressed up against the glass
[01:32.81]I found myself wanting sympathy
[01:37.37]but to be consumed again
[01:41.69]oh I know would be the death of me
[01:46.13]and there is a love that's inherently given
[01:50.94]a kind of blindness offered to appease
[01:56.54]and in that light of forbidden joy
[02:01.23]oh I know I won't receive it
[02:05.24]
[02:06.32]When all we wanted was the dream
[02:10.98]to have and to hold that precious little thing
[02:15.86]like every generation yields
[02:20.60]the newborn hope unjaded by their years
[02:28.14]
[02:44.57]You know if I leave you now
[02:50.20]It doesn't mean that I love you any less
[02:55.13]it's just the state I'm in
[02:59.04]I can't be good to anyone else like this
[03:03.80]
[03:05.06]When all we wanted was the dream
[03:09.36]to have and to hold that precious little thing
[03:14.17]like every generation yields
[03:18.85]the new born hope unjaded by their years.
