teachin' myself to dream

i throw myself into the rain

as we run down these old train

tracks again

the moon is naked in the sky

so maybe you and i could fly

or pretend

as the stars fall from grace

and light your glowing face

i'm teachin' myself to dream

i'm holding' my breath to scream

i;m teachin' myself to belive in the things i dont understand

i dont even know if they're true

that's what dreamers do

can't say what day it is or year

but thou shalt have no fear

for i know your name

you can't believe what i did

and maybe i'm just a kid

but the we're both the same

i watch the hours through the glass

and now the time will finally pass

i'm teachin' myself to dream

i'm learnin' what love can be

i'm teachin' myself to

belive in the things i don't understand

i don't even know if they're true

that's what dreamers do

stapled eyes can't open until waking

and all your lies will be your undertaking

i let my mind dance and flow

we'll magic and i'll know

as the lilacs slowly grow

all my dreams are true
