I'm sifting through memories Looking for answers in the past A dose of reality I hate the taste But I know it's for the best Connecting dotted lines Taking steps to find a way to fix myself I try to redefine All the things that hold me back out of this mess I think I slept right through the good part But somehow I'm still tired I know it's time to make a new start I can't seem to find a way to walk out of my head I'm afraid of what I'd miss I think I slept right through the good part So here's to dreaming out loud It's like I've seen everything But I can't remember when Took more pictures than memories I wonder if I was ever there at all Connecting dotted lines Taking steps to find a way to fix myself I try to redefine All the things that hold me back out of this mess I think I slept right through the good part But somehow I'm still tired I know it's time to make a new start I can't seem to find a way to walk out of my head I'm afraid of what I'd miss I think I slept right through the good part So here's to dreaming out loud Here's to dreaming out loud Oh, I'm just dreaming I think I slept right through the good part But somehow I'm still tired I know it's time to make a new start I can't seem to find a way to walk out of my head I'm afraid of what I'd miss I think I slept right through the good part So here's to dreaming out loud Here's to dreaming out loud Here's to Here's to dreaming out loud
