Mariah Carey — Right to Dream

[Verse 1] I lay awake sometimes Scared to close my eyes And I wonder where I left myself And lost the will to fight And the night melts into morning Still it's cold beneath the sun 'Cause the fire in me is languishing And I'm too frozen to run [Pre-Chorus 1] Every once in a while There's a distant glimmer of hope I find somewhere deep inside Someone strong still resides And I know she's gonna be fine In time [Chorus 1] 'Cause you see I've got a lot to dream There's more than this For me [Verse 2] An angel lands with broken wings He warms me with his eyes And the ice that's sheathed around my heart Unravels as he smiles See I grew up locked in sorrow So I learn to block the pain But I won't give up tomorrow 'Cause I've come to life again [Pre-Chorus 2] Every once in a while There's a distant glimmer of hope I find somewhere deep inside Someone strong still resides And I know I'm gonna be fine That's right [Chorus 2] 'Cause for real I've got a right to dream There's more than this For me [Instrumental Interlude] [Bridge] But I keep on going 'cause... [Pre-Chorus 1] Every once in a while There's a distant glimmer of hope I find somewhere deep inside Someone strong still resides And I know she's gonna be fine In time [Chorus 1] 'Cause you see I've got a right to dream There's more than this For me
