broken dreams

BROKEN DREAMS
Nothing in the world, it seems

Shatters like a broken dream

It is the ache behind the mean

Of shadows silent and unseen
And in this fortress dream of sorrow

Exist no dawn and no tomorrow

Just hours that cut you as they pass

Like little shards of broken glass
And yet another and another

Sometimes the night is meant to suffer

But look up now and see how far

They light your way like little stars
Oh, if I had a star to shine

For every broken dream of mine

The whole night sky would turn to day

And all my troubles melt away
