Verse 1 I saw you in my sleep again Standing where the summer ends Smiling like no time had passed Like we could start again For a moment it felt so real I almost reached for your hand Then morning pulled me back To where I am ⸻ Pre-Chorus Some dreams disappear at dawn Some stay long after they’re gone ⸻ Chorus These shadows of a dream Still dance across my memory Like pieces of a life That slipped away from me And though I know they’re only echoes Of a world we’ll never see I still chase the shadows Of a dream ⸻ Verse 2 Every photograph grows older Every season changes names But certain feelings stay untouched No matter how they fade Sometimes I hear your laughter Inside a crowded room And for a second I forget The truth ⸻ Pre-Chorus The heart remembers things The mind can’t keep ⸻ Chorus These shadows of a dream Still dance across my memory Like pieces of a life That slipped away from me And though I know they’re only echoes Of a world we’ll never see I still chase the shadows Of a dream ⸻ Post-Chorus Whoa-oh-oh, fading slow Whoa-oh-oh, letting go ⸻ Bridge Maybe dreams aren’t meant to stay Maybe they’re meant to show the way To the people we once loved And the people we became because of them ⸻ Final Chorus These shadows of a dream Still linger quietly Not to pull me backward But to remind me what was real And though the story ended The love remains with me Like gentle shadows Of a dream ⸻ Outro Morning comes again But you remain A shadow of a dream
