Cool morning shadows sadly shift across the floor

Each time we say goodbye it's harder than before

Even after all the pain of parting still we find

That we must mourn the death of the dreams we leave behind

As I turn my back on all that means the most to me

The sounds and smells, the light that dances on the sea

The greatest gamble is to act on the belief

That only the slave who leaves it all is truly free



The sacrifice that we both lay before His feet

A thousand moments that belonged to us

That now will never be



By faith we hold a better dream inside our hearts

A time when our family will never have to be apart

Till then we struggle with just what it really means

And we will mourn the death of our beautiful dreams

Mourn the death of our beautiful dreams
