Instead

Lori McKenna

3

Well I can hear you whisper as you're holding your breath

I can crawl deep inside of you and bring out what is left

Now I need to be grounded, how you need to see the sky

You have the wings to master and have the soul to fly

What does love mean to you

While I'm miles away

My lips seem to be moving

But you can't hear a word I say

How can our lives be so different

When we sleep in the same bed

Well I know your life's a burden

Won't you dream with me instead

Well things are never perfect

But oh how hard you try

You need to have a purpose

You need to ask why

Your senses see so differently than mine

Or so it seems

Your heart asks the questions

My heart just dreams

What does love mean to you

While I'm miles away

My lips seem to be moving

But I don't know what to say

How can our lives be so different

When we sleep in the same bed

Well I know your life's a burden

Won't you dream with me instead

Well go ahead and lay your head on my pillow dear

Say goodbye to all your fears

And rest assured there'll be no tears

Right here

Here

Here

What does love mean to you

While I'm miles away

My lips seem to be moving

But you can't hear a word I say

How can our lives be so different

When we sleep in the same bed

Well I know your life's a burden

Won't you dream with me instead?

Won't you dream with me instead?
