Once away, we had a chance to fly
No one took the step
So afraid, so content
Dance with me to this old melody
I'll pretend that summer has come
To my heart once again
Once were hopes, once were dreams
Now I live in my mind
So sing me a song
Of dreams long gone
Of memories fading
And ghosts of a long lost time
Far away, somewhere across the seas
Through our fallen skies
Was a hope, was a prayer
Tortured mind, a peace that you'll never know
Will you take me there
If I break down my walls, stop the fight
Once there were promises
Now there's ashes and dust
So sing me a song
Of dreams long gone
Of memories fading
And ghosts of a long lost time
Old spirits hold me tight
Old memories haunt me tonight
One day I'll fly away and leave this world behind
I have no hope for a tomorrow
I have been waiting for so long
And I'm swept up in a waltz of reminiscence
As I laugh and dance and sing my lonely song
So sing me a song
Of dreams long gone
Of memories fading
And ghosts of a long lost time
