THE DREAM THAT TOOK ME AWAY
When I go to sleep
I'll be going away
To a world where no one weeps
A place I'd like to stay
I just close my eyes
And after my last sigh
I'll begin to fly
And rush up to the sky
The stars are so bright
As I escape into the night
The wind carries me
To a secret galaxy
It is here I feel no pain
No sorrow and no shame
No parents, no police
Just truly blessed peace
We laugh and play
Amongst the trees
We sing and sway
To the sweetest melodies
We run and jump
And land with a thump
We swing so high
We are one with the sky
It's so much fun
Playing in the sun
I can't believe
That it's time to leave
I woke up to find
I'm back in my bed
A family so kind
Was a wish that I had
I was only three
When I had this dream
People thought I was confused
Only... I was abused
