Bon Jovi - You Can Sleep While I Dream lyrics

You're boy sit's down to write a song
Because he thinks he's got something to say
Innocence thinks it can change the world
But the world keeps getting in the way

It's a small list for the optimist
Who believes that he can fly
In a long line full of pessimists to
Stop him every time he tries
Some people see things as they are and ask
Why i dream things that never were, I
Take my shot and say, "Why not?"

Hey, hey hey this one's for the dreamers
Hey, hey hey doubting disbelievers
Get out of my way
I bend but I am not breaking
Scared but I am not shaking
Baby, you can sleep while I dream

Convicted by convictions
They were carving out your cross
They came to take your measurements just
To show you who's the boss
Until I reach that promised land I won't stop
When I get there I'll shake your hand
So meet me on that mountain top

(Hey, hey hey) this one's for the breathing
Hey, hey hey forgotten and the bleeding
I may whisper but I'm
Screaming, I got angels, i got demons
Baby, you can sleep while I dream
I'm not suggesting that you fly with me
Well here's a dose of some reality
You're swinging at a change-up
Boy you better shape up
Here comes the wrecking ball
Good morning, here's your wake-up call

(Hey, hey hey) i feel the change a coming
Hey, hey hey see that train a coming
(Hey, hey hey) this one's for the dreamers
Hey, hey hey doubting disbelievers
Get out of my way
I bend but I am not breaking
I'm scared but I am not shaking
Baby, you can sleep while I dream

(Hey, hey hey) this one's for the breathing
Hey, hey hey the dying and the bleeding
Get out of my way i may whisper but I'm
Screaming, I got angels, i got demons
Baby, you can sleep while I dream

(Hey, hey hey) when I dream
(Hey, hey hey) and I dream
(Hey, hey hey) i dream
(Hey, hey hey, Hey, hey hey)
I can feel the change a coming
(Hey, hey hey) i see that train a coming
(Hey, hey hey) can you see it?
(Hey, hey hey)
And baby, you can sleep while I dream
