Dreams Don't Count

You think it’s so complicated
What’s tearing you apart
But disguised in your confusion
There’s nothing simpler than a beating heart
Someone to make sure that winter
Doesn’t get too cold
Someone to make sure that your longing
Doesn’t get too old
I’m afraid dreams don’t count
You can go dreaming on a star
I’m afraid dreams don’t count
It only matters where you really are
It only matters where you really are
I know just how you feel right now
Nothing’s ever going to make you laugh
And somewhere just past the place you’d imagine
Someone’s waiting on an empty path
And you may not ever get that far
You may never dare to go
And it won’t do no good me telling you
Why he left as if I know
I’m afraid dreams don’t count
You can go dreaming on a star
I’m afraid dreams don’t count
It only matters where you really are
It only matters where you really are
I’m afraid dreams don’t count
You can go dreaming on a star
I’m afraid dreams don’t count
It only matters where you really are
It only matters where you really are
It only matters where you really are
It only matters where you really are
