in the shadow of a dream
Singer:james morrison
if it wasn't for the darkness
i'd be a stranger to the dreaming
takes a heart to feel so helpless
to find something to believe in
if we can't hold on to each other
after all that they've put us through
it'd be a shame to let the dream slide from view
cause madness has saved me
from being held down for so long
and we're not all made from the same flesh and bones
in the shadow of a dream babe
when you are down on your knees babe
there's only one way to go
in the shadow of a dream babe
or we'll fight till the day is done
well who are we without forgiveness
what's a saint without a sinner
don't be scared to show your weakness
brings us all closer together
if we can't hold on to each other
well there is nothing that we can't do
with a fire in our hearts
cause madness has saved me
from being held down for so long
and we're not all made from the same flesh and bones
in the shadow of a dream babe
when you are down on your knees babe
there's only one way to go
in the shadow of a dream babe
or we'll fight till the day is done
in the shadow of a dream babe
when you are down on your knees babe
there's only one way to go
in the shadow of a dream babe
or we'll fight till the day is done
if it wasn't for forgiveness
would i know the comfort of your shoulder?
if i'd never known your kindness
the world would feel so much colder
