When you woke up that night
You were dreaming with afflictions and pain
There’s nothing to say but you know it wasn’t just a dream
There’s nothing behind, your life has come to an end
Lots of surprises, you know, they’ll feed your hungry soul
Behind the dreams there’s a truth
Although dreams come at night when it’s day they become true
There’s a lord of dreams, a Lord of dreams, I know
There’s a Lord of dreams, he’s preparing a place for you

He is the one who can take your life away
Remember, my friend, that reasons don’t come before the day
This Lord of dreams can make you shut your eyes
Deep into darkness he’ll take you, making you feel insane
The light divides night and day
Although fear makes you cry, don’t leave your dreams astray

He is the one who can take your life away
Remember, my friend, that reasons don’t come before the day
The Lord of dreams can really shut your eyes
Forever and ever he’ll make you get into despair
But time will teach you the truth
Although dreams make you fright, don’t let your dreams go away
