[00:00.000]
[00:00.170]When is a dream not a dream
[00:05.133]When is a life not a life
[00:08.973]For how can I face the future without her
[00:17.306]She was the air that I breathe
[00:21.407]A perfect truth I could believe
[00:25.195]Now every hope of a bright tomorrow is gone forevermore
[00:33.215]A broken wave upon the shore
[00:37.917]And I'm aware of the darkness around me...
[00:47.112]And if I can't see her face
[00:51.344]There is no time, there is no space
[00:55.575]For how will I find the reason to carry on...
[01:02.785]
[01:05.920]There can be no words
[01:13.313]To describe that day
[01:20.078]It's as if the sun left the sky
[01:26.086]And carried my dreams away
[01:33.610]And so without a reason or a rhyme
[01:40.872]A rose was plucked untimely from the vine
[01:47.611]Nevermore I'll see her smiling face
[01:51.556]Or hold her in these empty arms of mine
[01:57.251]
[01:59.837]There can be no words
[02:07.491]To relieve the pain
[02:14.256]We have had our day in the sun
[02:20.160]Now only the clouds remain
[02:27.579]The traveling show will play another town
[02:34.945]But leaves behind a broken-hearted clown
[02:41.868]Then from somewhere in the audience
[02:45.760]The order comes to bring the curtain down
[02:52.264]
[03:01.094]If all the world's a stage
[03:08.695]All our lives are plays
[03:15.618]And sometimes we fumble our lines
[03:21.731]And stumble along the way
[03:29.045]The comedy will play and then it's gone
[03:36.150]For everyday's a show that must go on
[03:43.125]But if God is in His heaven
[03:46.782]Can He hear me when I pray?
[03:50.570]I begged of Him and pleaded
[03:53.495]Not to let it end this way
[03:57.492]But from somewhere in the audience
[04:01.411]He turned his back and looked the other way
[04:08.829]
[04:19.174]Though I begged Him and I pleaded not to take her light away
[04:26.462]If God is in His heaven, He must hear me when I pray
[04:33.646]But from somewhere in the audience
[04:37.695]A cold wind blew
[04:40.855]And took my love away ...
[04:49.502]
