Verse 1 These dreams, they run away Like light at the end of yesterday I chase the echo of their name But they never stay the same I reach out in the dark Try to grab on Every time I think I’m close They turn to smoke Pre-Chorus Feels like time won’t slow down Every answer fades out Chorus I reach for them But they slip through my fingers Just like moments Distant and fleeting Here for a second Gone the next Tell me was it meant to stay Or was I meant to keep dreaming? Verse 2 I replay it in my head All the words we ever said I swear I felt it breathe Like it was choosing me But the closer that I get The more it leaves Pre-Chorus (spoken/stripped) These dreams, they run away Chorus I reach for them But they slip through my fingers Just like moments Distant and fleeting Here for a second Gone the next Tell me was it meant to stay Or was I meant to keep dreaming? Bridge Maybe some things aren’t meant to be held Maybe they’re just meant to be felt If I lose them when I wake Does that make them a mistake? Final Chorus (stripped) These dreams I reach for them But they slip through my fingers Here for a second Gone the next Maybe it was never meant to stay Maybe I was meant to keep dreaming Outro (spoken) These dreams… They run away But I’m still dreaming anyway.
