Dreams of Life

People laugh and people cry
People live and people die
People dream of happiness
People scream when in duress
Last night I dreamed a dream so clear
That filled my mind with dread and fear
For I dreamed a dream
Of a dear, dear friend
Who's life was short
With a tragic end
So now I ponder my own life
And how I have filled it
With much sadness and strife
And the thoughts I have
Make me want to scream
As I fear my life is the dream
Because I don't want to die
Or live in dread or fear
I want to live
I want to hold life dear
But most of all
I want to make things right
And win life's fight
There are so many things
I want to do
But most of all
I want to live life with you.
