dream baby dream

Let you down easy, let you down hard,
Leave your heart hanging out in the yard.
Life likes to hurt, knows how to kill,
Hold onto your dreams, hold onto your will.

Between you and the darkness, is only you,
Stand up straight and walk on through.
There’s still magic, still love and soul,
Rising from the depths like rock and roll.

Keep your heart and eyes open.
Let your soul shine a light.
Dream baby dream,
You might just be alright.
