lyrics

Death Of A Dream

It’s the end of the line on a dark rain drenched night
Two silhouettes sat in a car where the Earth meets the Sky
There will be no tomorrow no light at the dawn
In their eyes only sadness, in their hearts no more songs.

The death of a dream for two souls in the cold
The death of a dream, they will never grow old
The death of a dream.

As children they smiled and ran in the rain
It all seemed so possible they knew no real pain
As lovers they planned in the night, looked to the future
A life full of hope, of this, they were sure…

The death of a dream….

And out in the world they go, they got jobs and pay
They got a house and a car a success some would say
‘Till one day they woke up with everything gone
Thrown out on the street, what had they done wrong ?

The death of a dream ….

It’s the end of the line on a dark rain drenched night
Two silhouettes sat in a car where the Earth meets the Sky
In the paper you’ll read of the car in the sea
A girl and a boy, it could be you and me

The death of a dream ….

Lyrics – Tony Floyd Kenna, October 2015.
