PAINTED DREAMS - January 1, 2011 (Lyrics for Alobo)

Stanza 1                  

They say every dream needs a dreamer

We cry out for them with passion and power

When helplessness makes days seem dark and bleak

And people are colorless and meek

We all need a reason

To believe in living every season

Someone to touch our soul and hearts

 And help us reach those far-away stars

Pre-Chorus

Oh, oh, oh, my friend

Let your imagination speak

Would you rise?

Be our dreamer!

Chorus

If I could just paint my dreams and yours

Help us live this life we now share

If I could just have my way, without fears

Till death will I strive, with passion and care

Hey… I would be your dreamer  

Together, we’ll color our world

Stanza 2

They say there’s no life with no vision

Children’s hearts bleed dry for true mission

When the road ahead is tough in word or deed

They call out to heaven for someone to lead

Everyone’s looking for an answer

Knocking on doors for a breath of fresh air

We’re seeking for true direction

Desperate for love and motivation

Bridge

So paint your dreams

Reds, blues and greens

Make them live, like lovers do

Set your hearts free, live out your passions

Color your world, be my dreamer
