All the people who are dreaming

Verse 1:
When I look upon the morning
And I think of you and cry
When I look upon the morning
I fly…
To a moment where you’re smiling
To another place in time
And I fear for all your longing
And the emptiness you’ll find
Chorus:
In a world where nothing changes
In a world that’s left behind
All the people who are dreaming
Find the passages of time
And the reason for our longing
Seems so far away somehow
All the people who are dreaming
Find this moment here somehow
Verse 2:
When you look upon the morning
And you turn around in fear
Know that something is your calling
But this prophecy you bear
The existential understanding
That you find in solitude
Turns away the awful hunger
And there’s nothing left to prove
Chorus:
In a world where nothing changes
In a world that’s left behind
All the people who are dreaming
Find the passages of time
And the reason for our longing
Seems so far away somehow
All the people who are dreaming
Find this moment here somehow
