Dreams Don’t Turn to Dust Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Splash down in the silver screen
Into a deep dramatic scene
I swim through the theater
Or maybe I'm just a dreamer
Like a kite in the bright midday
Wonder stole my breath away
Shy sonata for Mercury
The stars always sing so pretty
[Chorus]
This picnic will soon depart
Real life, I'm sad to see you go
I'll miss you with all my heart
But I'd rather be alone
'Cause I couldn't live without
Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk
So I'll drag the anchor up
And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust
Dreams don't turn to dust
[Verse 2]
I made for the countryside
And my eyes never grew so wide
Apple raspberry river blue
I don't want to leave without you
In the sound I'll gladly drown
Into the emerald underground
I rub my eyes because it's hard to see
Surrounded by all this beauty
[Chorus]
This picnic will soon depart
Real life, I'm sad to see you go
I'll miss you with all my heart
But I'd rather be alone
'Cause I couldn't live without
Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk
So I'll drag the anchor up
And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust
[Bridge]
(I'm sad to see you go)
(But I'd rather be alone)
[Verse 3]
When tiger eyes begin making you blush
And when diamonds boast that they can't be crushed
Let 'em go, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust
[Chorus]
This picnic will soon depart
Real life, I'm sad to see you go
I'll miss you with all my heart
But I'd rather be alone
'Cause I couldn't live without
Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk
So I'll drag the anchor up
And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust
[Outro]
Dreams don't turn to dust
Dreams don't turn to dust
I'll rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust!
