Lifting Shadows Off a Dream Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He seems alone and silent
Thoughts remain without an answer
Afraid and uninvited
He slowly drifts away

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Moved by desire and fear
Breaking delicate wings

[Chorus]
Lifting shadows off a dream once broken
She can turn a drop of water into an ocean

[Verse 2]
As the rain is pouring down
Tears of sorrow wash his mind
Drifting with the current
This stream of life flows on
He seems alone and silent
Waiting on his hands and knees
The chill of winter's darkness sits quietly

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Moved by desire and fear
He takes a few steps away

[Chorus]
Lifting shadows off a dream once broken
She can turn a drop of water into an ocean

[Bridge]
And she listens, ohhh
Oh, and she listens openly

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
He pours his soul into the water
Reflecting the mystery
She carries him away
And the winds die slowly

[Bridge]
And she listens openly
Oh, and she listens openly

[Chorus]
Lifting shadows off a dream once broken
She can turn a drop of water into an ocean

[Outro]
Lifting shadows off a dream
Lifting shadows off a dream
