Westward dreaming of California
Seems like a dream to me now
How I love you and how I adore you
Gonna make it through somehow
Crossing canyons, slaying dragons
As if the night was ours to take
The weight of wanting, the fear of failure
The fear it's all about to break
Doubt is a deep well
Hope is a carousel
It spins until your faith is undone
Hold on... what dreams may come
He said nothing of any meaning
For at least a couple weeks
He was dying, he dreamt of flying
I think he'd lost the will to speak
I wondered what he was really thinking
Was he thinking about his life
Maybe his children, the years of drinking
Maybe the death of his wife
He reached his arms up
And he reached to me
He whispered come here son
Hold on... what dreams may come
Sometimes dreaming -dreaming too big
Sometimes the dream can turn on you
Upon the leaves of a thousand eves
Someday we'll never have to run
Will you understand me
Will you show me mercy
Will you tell me I'm 'the one'?
Whisper to me, that you love me
Let me taste your life upon my tongue
Dance in the waves of a thousand rainy days
We won't stop until its done
Take my hand, babe, I've got a plan
Our lives have really just begun
Hold on, what dreams may come
Hold on, what dreams may come
