Once upon a moonless night I dreamed my world was one small room A thousand books of stories told All were black but one was gold I took the Book from off the shelf And held it to my frozen self A war within my spirit raged Through drops of salt on every page
And my body was breaking For the words He was saying
Be a light in the darkness Be a heart to the heartless When the world's lost its meaning Be the one who will still go on believing
Then once upon a windless night Another dream in black and white A gentle man of flesh and bone He says this world is not our home
And my body was breaking For the words He was saying
CHORUS
Though I was only dreaming His words kept burning me Over and over and over again
