Pipe Dreams
[Verse 1]
I’m out of breath, but I will push to go further
My journey’s begun and there’s no time to recover
No time to sleep, I toss and turn if I do
I’m on the path and aiming straight with the truth
I take off my shoes so I can go up quicker
I promise myself that I will always deliver
Sometimes I'll fall and maybe sometimes maybe I'll bruise
I know where I'm going, I’m no longer confused
[Pre-Chorus]
Pipe dreams, far away plans
Suddenly here in the palm of my hand
Tick, tock, now I’m ready to stand
Living in a fairytale that I command
[Chorus]
Faster, I’m going faster
Turning to dust, I’m barely touching the ground
Run for all that you ache for
Running like thunder without making a sound
Faster, I’m going faster
Turning to dust, I’m barely touching the ground
Run for all that you ache for
Running like thunder without making a sound
[Verse 2]
I tuck myself in and whisper under the covers
Closing my eyes to say a prayer, yes another
No voice to tell me I’m living in the clouds
[?]
As long as you hope, then try, don’t doddle or wonder
Back up your plans and catch the train to discover
Perfectly place your hopes and then you will see
It’s all in your heart, you hold the key to believe
[Pre-Chorus]
Pipe dreams, far away plans
Suddenly here in the palm of my hand
Tick, tock, now I’m ready to stand
Living in a fairytale that I command
[Chorus]
Faster, I’m going faster
Turning to dust, I’m barely touching the ground
Run for all that you ache for
Running like thunder without making a sound
Faster, I’m going faster
Turning to dust, I’m barely touching the ground
Run for all that you ache for
Running like thunder without making a sound
[Bridge]
Give me a minute so I can catch my breath
‘Cause I can’t breathe
Am I sleeping or am I awake?
Fighting the fire, can make no mistakes
I see the stars beginning to race
It’s coming together, it’s all taking shape
I promise myself what I can do
I will try harder if only for you
I’m right on the edge
I’m so full of pipe dreams
[Chorus]
Faster, I’m going faster
Turning to dust, I’m barely touching the ground
Run for all that you ache for
Running like thunder without making a sound
Faster, I’m going faster
Turning to dust, I’m barely touching the ground
Run for all that you ache for
Running like thunder without making a sound
