About the Artist
Lyrics
What can I say this time Which card shall I play The dream is not over, The dream is just away And you will fly like some little wing straight back to the sun The dream was never over The dream has just begun The dream has just begun Fingers find the ivory keys And a song begins to begin l Like a wolf on the run And you will find while in the wind something that you lost The dream was never over, no The dream was only lost (Hours and hours of waiting for you, So strong and so fleeting) The dream has just begun (And hours of waiting for you... In hopes of meeting) The dream has just begun (This way) Well, the dream has just begun She remembers how good it can be He remembers a melody Ah, in the shadow of my shadow in a gleam He remembers how good it can be She remembers a melody Well, in the shadow of my shadow in a gleam (Hours and hours of waiting for you So strong and so fleeting) The dream has just begun (Hours and hours of waiting this way... Meeting, me) Hours of waiting for you (So strong and so fleeting) The dream has just begun... (Meeting this way) Straight back now (Hours and hours of waiting So strong and so fleeting) Hours and hours waiting this way Hours and hours of waiting this way Straight back Straight back Straight back... yeah! He remembers a melody He remembers how good it can be
