If I Could Touch A Dream

Moonlight drifts across the room

While I sit in the shadows thinking of you

I hear you whisper in the dark

But it's drowned out by the pain in my heart

How I pray for a chance to make things right

As I give way to the night

Chorus

If I could touch a dream, mold it like clay

And be able to keep all the things that I made

I would make our life, as it used to be

When you were in love with me

Yeah I'd give anything

If I could touch a dream

I would build a house where pride can’t live

Filled with hearts that are quick, quick to forgive

Place it in a land that’s far away

Where the sun shines bright and clouds never stay

Then I'd make sweet love to you

All the whole night through

Chorus

If I could touch a dream, mold it like clay

And be able to keep all the things that I made

I would make our life, as it used to be

When you were in love with me

Yeah I'd give anything

If I could touch a dream

Hi, Tony

You're welcome. Yes, it's a good lyric. I'm also interested to hear the music, so when you have the music, if you have the chance please post the song.  Look forward to hearing it.  Great title btw.

 Hi Tony

Welcome to Songramp. So glad to see you here my friendy. You must go to the new member thread

and say hi.

This is a beautiful lyric, love it. So pleased to see you're back writing again. Would also love to hear it

when you've put it to music.

Also when you get a gap, come over to" Poets Corner " and have a laugh at the "Joke of the Day" it's really funny

Hi G,

I'm thrilled that you like this lyric so much. I'll get over to the new member thread and intro myself. Thanks again!!!!

Tony

I like how you tell the story. The "story telling" is less and less present in modern pop music and that's a pity. These lyrics really tell a story. Once you have music to this you could just listen to the song, close your eyes and see that poor guy sitting in that dark room. Very nice write Tony!

Hi Christian,

I totally agree with your assement of my lyric and the lack of story telling in today's music. I write what's in my heart and not necessarily what fits today's music culture. Thanks so much for your comments.

Tony

Excellent write Tony!  We certainly are happy to have you join us here on the ramp with your lyrics. Lots of fine folk here that have a great deal experience in the music biz and songwriting. Hope to see more from you soon.

Hi Gary,

Thanks for the warm welcome and your generous comments on my lyric. I hope to be around here quite a long time.

Tony
