REPLACE THE DREAM

You may reach
With jewelled hands
Silver palms
Shifting sands
But you can never
Oh no never
Never, ever
Replace a dream.

The fact it lived
Not for long
Gives it credence
With a song
But you can never
Replace the dream.

You may remiss
Each stolen kiss
Inside a vacuum
Of loves call
But you can never
Oh no never
Never ever
Replace a dream.
