|
Spent my life looking for |
|
Happiness like it was |
|
Buried treasure |
|
Somewhere behind a secret door |
|
Surely there were riches |
|
Beyond measure |
|
I would take my sanity to task |
|
Walk across broken glass to find it |
|
And no mountain top was left unclimbed |
|
Before i ever took the time to look |
|
Inside me |
|
These dreams of mine |
|
These precious years |
|
Oh how they shine |
|
Like diamonds and tears |
|
The slow grace of time |
|
The joy and the fears |
|
Oh how they shine |
|
Like diamonds and tears |
|
Oh sure there was love |
|
And of course i thought he'd be my salvation |
|
And in a way i guess he was |
|
There's always room for higher education |
|
Yes,i have said and heard the word goodbye |
|
Felt the blade and turned the knife-sideways |
|
But i'd cross bridges while they burn |
|
To keep from losin' what i've learned -along the way |
|
