Lyrics
Do we ever rise in love
Or we just endlessly keep on falling?
Will it one day take us above
Or will it keep us on the ground crawling?
Chasing ideals, never wanting the real lives we’re living
Praise those tomorrows, keep those yesterdays clinging
Chasing lies to change our lives
Living dreams that belong to someone else
Bright eyes blinded by the city lights
Traffic noise muffled wedding bells
Do we dare to find someone who’d take us high and live it all the way?
Do we dare to trade our gloomy nights alone into some sunny days?
Walk away from stories, walk away from fears,
Give that string of single morning glories away…
Do we ever dare to stop
Or we just constantly keep on rushing?
Do we race like mad to the top
No matter who in the way we’re crushing?
Head in the clouds, soulmates lost soulmates found, nothing’s lasting
Long answers, simple questions, why keep on asking
Chasing lies to change our lives
Living dreams that belong to someone else
Bright eyes blinded by the city lights
Traffic noise muffled wedding bells
Do we dare to find someone who’d take us high and live it all the way?
Do we dare to trade our gloomy nights alone into some sunny days?
Walk away from stories, walk away from fears,
Give that string of single morning glories away…
Do we ever dare?
