Dreams

Brandi Carlile · Give Up the Ghost [2009]

Dreams, I have dreams

When I'm awake, when I'm asleep

And you, you are in my dreams

You're underneath my skin

How am I so weak



And now, in my dreams

I can feel the weight

I could just come clean

I keep it to myself

I know what it means

I can't have you

But I have dreams



How long can you hold your breath

Can you count to ten, can you let it pass

Oh, and keep

Can you keep it in

Keep it behind lashes

Can you make it last



And now, in my dreams

I can feel the weight

I could just come clean

I keep it to myself

I know what it means

I can't have you

But I have dreams

And I have dreams

I have dreams



Mind, can you read my mind

Has it come undone

Am I showing signs



And now, in my dreams

I can feel the weight

I could just come clean

Keep it to myself

I know what it means

I can't have you

But I have dreams

And I have dreams

I have, I have

I have dreams
