Cry me a river that flows through fields of dreams Through the wings of the nightingale And twilight memories An angel's gentle kiss of lifeless breath within your mind So beautiful the symphony, disjointed and sublime Close your eyes and dream your life away, away Forever and a day, queens of the May beckon you to Dream your life away See through the mirror how it seems ever clearer now Translucent and so surreal my scars just fade away A passion play of shadows sings a midnight serenade The rush of guilt for all my thoughts comes to light as another day Close your eyes and dream your life away, away This abstract masquerade in disarray You're the pawn so dream your life away The willow tree I engraved your name A thousand tears it still remains Cold November rains Wash your blood from my veins And as the hours meld into the years Windows to my soul reveal The answer to my prayers is not the dream, but to believe Close your eyes and dream your dreams away, away Forever and a day queens of the May Beckon you to dream your life Close you eyes and dream your life away, away Sanctuary I can't face another day So I'll dream my life away
