Long before he came to claim me Things had started changing in my life (in my life) I began the day by praying God help me to lay myself aside (lay aside) Show me your will for my life Dreams pass away - Dreams pass away Longing for the break of day Dreams pass away - Dreams pass away Longing for the break of day Long before he came to hold me I looked up to heaven and I cried (yes I cried) Why it was I didn't know; My heart and soul just had to apologize And my eyes looked up to the Father of Lights Dreams pass away - Dreams pass away Longing for the break of day Night falls away - night falls away Longing for the break of day Unlock the door and walk inside And find the truth you seek to hide He chased you down and brought you low To work the change no one can know But to go on you must let go Dreams pass away - Dreams pass away Longing for the break of day Night falls away - night falls away Longing for the break of day Dreams pass away - Dreams pass away Longing for the break of day
