Before I Start Dreaming Lyrics

Lonely empires fill the night's imagination
A distant land of foreign hand and I'm patient
I tried to take you, but you wouldn't wait and see
I'll try to explain without words what I hope to beClose your eyes, there's nothing here to see
Don't lie here awake in thoughts you won't believeI'll wait 'till you're asleep before I, I start dreaming
I'll find future for us both after you're sleeping
These thoughts could keep you up all night, I'm safe keeping
I'll wait 'till you're asleep before I, I start dreamingDo you ever wish we were more than who we are?
Or are you happy watching others from afar?
If you're not gonna to stand by my side through this,
Then don't stand in the way and pretend you've missed outClose your eyes, there's nothing here to see
I've found someone else to listen to my dreamsI'll wait 'till you're asleep before I, I start dreaming
I'll find future for us both after you're sleeping
These thoughts could keep you up all night, I'm safe keeping
I'll wait 'till you're asleep before I start dreaming
