stars in the sky at night

I am dreaming

I dream as a child

When I was allowed

I see youth
   Dsus2Dsus2           E minorEm
When frowns were stranger then smiles
Dsus2Dsus2 E minorEm
Unworn faces full of

life, not worry

Unscramble
   Dsus2Dsus2           E minorEm
This whirlwind of thought in my head

Competition forced into
  Dsus2Dsus2        E minorEm
Deceit that trusting allows

Rid me this struggle
    C majorC               Dsus2Dsus2 Dsus4Dsus4 DmDm  Dsus2Dsus2

I can't explain all the love I've had in my life
    Dsus2Dsus2        E minorEm
And how sometimes I couldn't feel it
  Dsus2Dsus2    E minorEm
For picturing it gone

  C majorC            Dsus2Dsus2
And nothing can penetrate my skin
