Don't Take My Dreams Away - Sweet Pea

Don't Take My Dreams Away Lyrics

I used to be ashamed of crying
I used to be afraid to die
But now I’m not afraid of dying
And I’m not ashamed to cry
I used to live on a one-way going nowhere
Discontent in my mind
I wanted to know all the answers, but the questions
I just didn’t recognize
Coexisting in a fantasy
But really trying to slow down
Always searching for a similarity
Hoping to turn my world around
Now when I cry
I cry
And when I die, well
Then I’ll be gone

After I’m long gone and I’ve gone home, aw
Just leave it alone and don’t take my dreams away
I used to worry ‘bout what Mama taught me
And it consumed me to the core
It seemed with every fleeing moment
I was looking, looking for more
Kept on senselessly, constantly, longing
Wondering what was going on
Found myself turning and tossing
Helplessly trying to be strong
Now when I cry
I cry
And when I die, well
Then I’ll be gone
After I’m long gone and I’ve gone home, aw
Just leave it alone and don’t take my dreams away
Dream baby
Ready to take flight
Dream baby
Tell me
Where is home tonight
