Surrender

My hands hold safely to my dreams
Clutching tightly not one has fallen
So many years I've shaped each one
Reflecting my heart, showing who I am
Now you're asking me to show
What I'm holding Oh so tightly
Can't open my hands; can't let go
Does it matter?
Should I show you?
Can't you let me go?

Surrender, surrender
You whisper gently
You say I will be free
I know but can't you see
My dreams are me, My dreams are me

Say you have a plan for me
And that you want the best for my life
Told me the world has yet to see
What you can do with one
That's committed to your calling
I know of course what I should do
That I can't hold these dreams forever
But if I give them now to you
Will you take them
Away forever?
Or can I dream again?
