Love was never enough throughout time, yet some give it up 
well, you kept me standing alone 
if only i could have one dance i would move on my own 
in tattered daydreams that slip through the night 
i'm prince, king, warrior, and i'm doing things right 
but every daydream leaves me awake all the night 
if i was a bird, spread my wings, and take off and fly 
yeah yeah yeah yeah 
i had the swirl and ache from sprays of honeysuckle 
that when they're gathered break will dew on the knuckle 
i had small sweets but those seemed small when i was young 
the petal of the rose was strung 
yeah, na-na na-na 

so in this dream i walk with my head held high 
cause here i'll live forever and never die 
i see my soul straight ahead with his eyes locked on mine 
if i should wake right now, i'd rather be blind 
and in these dreams with love, together we'd stand 
i'm slipping, falling to earthward and i can't reach your hand 
yeah yeah yeah yeah 

i had the swirl and ache from sprays of honeysuckle 
that when they're gathered break will dew on the knuckle 
i had small sweets but those seemed small when i was young 
the petal of the rose was strung 
yeah, na-na na-na 

my eyes open wide and i've lost myself 
i'm laying here in my bed, there's nobody else 
surrounded by questions, hate, and blood soaked war 
i clasp my hands together and pray, ask what it's all for 

it's easy for me to slip away and live on the air 
if we'd all just let love live we could all meet there 
but time has its way of saying it's time to move on 
so off to my kingdom i go where i feel at home 
yeah yeah yeah yeah 

i had the swirl and ache from sprays of honeysuckle 
that when they're gathered break will dew on the knuckle 
i had small sweets but those seemed small when i was young 
the petal of the rose was strung 
yeah yeah yeah
