The World of Dreams - Kenvae

I know your face I know your smile and how it plays Into the minds of those who cling to every word you say This isn't how I wanted to remember me and you Your eyes are talking but your lips are standing still Open your mouth tell me how I'm supposed to feel My finger pointing is just a warning so I suggest you Say you're wrong Let's get this over I would like to get some sleep tonight Let's get this over, I'd like to get some sleep tonight You make it hard for me to leave So very hard for me to leave By now the lies you told are weighing on your chest If I provide the rope I know you'll do the rest But I will not be an accessory no I'm not who you think And I will never be your enemy so don't insult me Say you're wrong This could be easier if I was over her Say you're wrong I know she's just a girl But she's got me standing on the edge I'm on the edge of the world My eyes are open for the first time This place not yours it's in my own eyes I am not a man who lives a life of soldiers I am not the kind of man who walks away I will stand up face to face or toe to toe with anyone Yes anyone Everything you said about me was the truth but I just don't think that I can look at you the same You're like a splinter that will never show its head to anyone To anyone Now I know that I was not the man you wanted You know I loved you and I wanted to make you proud My intentions were to never give myself to anyone Look what I've done

I went on the river for money, I sold my old rotten shack For a rusty tanker leaking oil, and the burning sun was on my back Traveled up the ragin' river, I watched the jungle burn And in the reddenin' twilight, I wondered would I ever return. Ridin' on a river of dreams, Broken dreams. I'm ridin' on a river of dreams. Amazon, Amazon, Is it heaven or hell? Amazon. An eagle flew above us, I felt the breezes blow. Fish with teeth like ivory, waited down below. On shore they cut and hammered, and fenced them in with wire. While ancient fires in the jungle, burned our souls like fire. Ridin' on a river of dreams, Somebody's dreams. I'm ridin' on a river of dreams. Amazon, Amazon, Is it Heaven or hell? Amazon. What kind of creature's gonna rise up from these ashes? What's gonna fly in the moonlight feathers aglow? What kind of rain could come in from these sorrows? Nobody knows, nobody knows. At dawn we crossed the rapids, a place where few men go. I felt the desolation, where nothing seemed to grow. When I got my wages, I hung my head and cried. I could not stop these visions, that swept in like the tide. Ridin' on a river of dreams, Broken dreams. I'm ridin' on a river of dreams. Amazon, Amazon, Is it Heaven or hell? Amazon. Oh, Amazon, Amazon, Amazon, Amazon.

Hey pretty baby I see yah coming back my way, Do you remember me? I saw you through a window That was clear as day, Memories of dreams. The pain I saw in your eyes Made me want to say, Do you remember me? A smile so bright it burned All my fears away, Memories of dreams. I was alone while you were at home, At night you told me you cried. Over the phone theres someone to hold, Dont force me to look in your eyes. You were so high when I was so low, infatuating is blind. A loss of control, The black golden rose, You forced me to look in your eyes.

It's the way of the world, sadly Lovers choose their lovers, badly Oh, I should've asked for one more minute, one more minute next to you But I never had the courage, I couldn't talk when you moved So I choked and stretched my bones, to the point of bleeding And you're moving on, moving on, moving on But tell me, what was I supposed to do? A done deal decided and I signed it too At least the end of the world is quite the view It's thе way of the world, sadly Lovers choose thеir lovers, badly But tell me, do you look at her when she gives you her body? Do you grab her head with both hands? Do you let love thrive, do you let love thrive? Are you soaked and drenched in gold, in your bed, in the morning? Do you beg her for one more minute, one minute more? But tell me, what was I supposed to do? A done deal decided and I signed it too At least the end of the world is quite the view A done deal decided and I signed it too At least the end of the world is quite the view But tell me, do I ever cross your mind? Are you proud of how you survived? She puts her head on your shoulder And I see the way your eyes linger But tell me why it seems so different with her?
