Between the Dreams of You and I


This age holds nothing sacred
this noisy masquerade
We're targets for the bullets on the hit parade
We practice imperfections
and learn the art of compromise
then gaze upon reflections of love's disguise

Who can say what goes unspoken
Who will count the tears we cry
These measures lie between
the dreams of you and I.

Oh, the circle set in motion
comes bearing down our way
The promise of tomorrow
still born today

Dancing waves out on the ocean
Shooting stars up in the sky
These measures lie between
the dreams of you and I.

Oh, hear the echoes of the ages
Feel the rhythm of the tides
The truth keeps coming down into that place
where love resides
Oh, the place where love resides

We search for something holy
Then draw the bottom line
Tracing out a portrait in love's design
Every wave out on the ocean
Every star up in the sky
All measures lie between
the dreams of you and I.
