Something about this is precious, something about this is sad
Something about this is better, than Ive ever had
Hard and lean, you know what I mean?
How do the roots become tangled? why does the spirit grow tired?
Where is the key to your kingdom? yes thats my desire.
Chorus:
There are those who live to count the cost
And then those who count themselves content
I see heaven wrapped up in a box
It is you come back to love again, in a dream, this living dream.
Up in a heap Im not bothered, down in the dumps Im okay
Here in my heart youre the best road, that Ill ever take, Im serene yeh.
Chorus:
There are those who live to take the chance
And then more who find themselves content
I see heaven mapped out in advance
It is you and thats my journeys end, in a dream, this living dream.
Im trying to hang on to the essence, Im feeling more faint by the day
It took such a long time to get it, I dont want to see it erased
Chorus:
There are those who live to count the cost
And then more who count themselves content
I see heaven wrapped up in a box
It is you come back to love again, in a dream, this living dream
This living dream.
