I chasedv6

[Verse 1] I chased the peaks where morning spills its blue I stitched each dream the way the needle drew I begged the eyes I loved to anchor deep And not become strange ships on tides of sleep [Verse 2] I wanted lanterns low, a softened flame I believed the dark would cradle me the same I dreamed of holding home like folded wings And never crossing nights on broken strings [Chorus] Was it a mountain asked, a pebble plea? A little ember kept for what would be Now not a single drop is left to find And I still dreamed, still wished, still believed inside [Verse 3] I watched the colors drain like rivers dry I cupped my hopes and never questioned why The ones I trusted sailed beyond the blue And still I dreamed the way I always knew [Bridge] Maybe dreaming is a quiet kind of rain Maybe hoping is the toll upon the lane But I would rather shatter than not try Than let the blue turn gray without a sigh [Chorus] Was it a mountain asked, a pebble plea? A little ember kept for what would be Now not a single drop is left to find And I still dreamed, still wished, still believed inside [Outro] I wanted, I believed, I dreamed so long Even when the world proved me wrong Not a drop remains, but still I know I dreamed because I could not let it go
