Suzanne Vega — Book of Dreams

[Chorus:] In my book of dreams In my book of dreams In my book of dreams [Verse 1:] I took your urgent whisper Stole the arc of a white wing Rode like foam on the river of pity Turned its tide to strength Healed the hole that ripped in living [Chorus:] In my book of dreams In my book of dreams In my book of dreams [Verse 2:] The spine is bound to last a life Tough enough to take the pounding Pages made of days of open hand [Chorus:] In my book of dreams In my book of dreams In my book of dreams [Verse 3:] Number every page in silver Underline in magic marker Take the name of every prisoner Yours is there my word of honor [Verse 4:] I took your urgent whisper Stole the arc of a white wing Rode like foam on the river of pity Healed the hole that ripped in living [Chorus:] In my book of dreams In my book of dreams In my book of dreams
