Dream Lyrics

[Verse 1]
These are all words lost in dreams
Travelling the speed that blood pumps
I feel your breath which carries my hope
In the way ships pass at night
Making the hands a world map
Every word announces storms

[Refrain]
It’s like stepping from the door
There is no barrier and no wall

[Verse 2]
In the way ships pass at night
Endless looping chains of rooms
Go forever, hurry you’re…
Through your veins I trace a wall

[Verse 3]
Looping streetlights spell out words
I don’t want to say goodbye
But as I wake it begins to lose sense

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
