I Had


I dreamed a dream

Unlike this world

Where I was free

And this pain

Did not haunt me

 

I wished a world

Unlike one ever known

Where I had wings

And I could fly

Into the night sky

 

I had a love

Unlike one I've had before

Where I felt safe

And cared for

But it was a lie

 

You can dream

You can wish

But no matter 

How hard you try

You can not be free

And you can not fly
