When Dreams are Gone

Words & Music by Christopher Kent

Love is such a lonely game
Dreams never come true
The way they came to you
Just when you think you’ve found someone
You find you’ve just begun
A long and lonely climb
One lover and friend
That time and time again
You thought you could depend upon
What do you do when dreams are gone?

Words are sometimes hard to say
Tears, anger and love
that turns and walks away
Like stars before the dawn —
What do you do when dreams are gone?

Alone, the silence in a room
Can tear your soul apart
One to share your life
One to share your heart
As long as time runs by

But time, it’s just the price you pay
Sad angel of night
You could not make love stay
To build your dreams upon
What do you do when dreams are gone?
