Dream

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 I lie in my bed at night
Willing my heart into a dream
That gives more of itself
Than I dare in my waking hours
I step out onto the park
And the noise muffles in my shirt
Clings to the number and name
And the badge glistens and sweats
Beneath the intensity of floodlights
Breathlessly waiting to highlight my shadow
Oh I am eager for goals
Goals that speak with a universal language
Sweet as kisses stolen
Heroes and Legends they make of those
Whose names belong to them
And I dream of this alone when
I lie in my bed at night.
