Somebody Else's Dream Lyrics - Tony Banks

Too good to last 

How those four words ring in my ears 

A voice from the past has been heard again 

Whether it's real or not, I can't say I care 

But my memory's goin' and my mind is losin' its grip 

I'm walkin' on thinnin' ice 

Soon I shall be taken down, drowned in blind ignorance 

It's hard to bear but harder still to tell the one I care for 

Please to say love is here today 

But it's goin' away, goin' away 

How can I fight a fire that comes from inside myself 

That threatens a total end 

So much to lose when I still had so much to learn 

It's hard to bear but harder still to tell the one I care for

Please to say love is here today 

But it's goin' away, goin' away 

Millions of people, won't know what I mean 

None can appreciate somebody else's dream 

Thousands of reasons for staying alive 

Explode into fragments, dissolve into nothin' 

As I prepare for the oncoming night 

Already I feel a creeping coldness, chilling my bones 

Dulling my sight and mind 

Soon there shall be only sand where once water flowed 

Nature dies and is reborn but I shan't weather this coming storm 

Not for me to die with children around my bed 

After a happy life 

Though rain will fall and the sun won't change in its course 

It's hard to bear but harder still to tell the one I care for 

Please to say love is here today 

But it's goin' away, goin' away
