I'm in a dream I'm flying over hills
I see it shining in the hay
There's something golden in my hands
And then I go and let it slip away

With eyes that are broken, my feelings are spoken
It's time for the waters to break
I know where I should be, and I'm gonna make it there
I won't let you be my mistake

The days go by like chapters from a book
I'm skipping pages to the end
There's a story that I'll never know
The one about the man who makes amends

With eyes that are open, my feelings are spoken
It's time for the waters to break
I know where I should be, and I'm gonna make it there
I won't let you be my mistake

The moment's uncovered, I must seize the day
This goal that I hold high - won't let it be lost for all time

With eyes that are open, my feelings are spoken
It's time for the waters to break
I know where I should be, and I'm gonna make it there
I won't let you be my mistake
With eyes that are broken, my feelings are spoken
It's time for the waters to break
I know where I should be, and I'm gonna make it there
I won't let you be my mistake

My mistake baby…
