In My Dreams - Christy Altomare

They said I was found by the side of a road

There were tracks all around it had recently snowed

In the darkness and cold with the wind in the trees

A girl with no name and no memories but these

Rain against a window sheets upon a bed

Terrifying nurses whispering overhead

Call the child Anya give the child a hat

I don't know a thing before that

Traveling the back roads sleeping in the wood

Taking what I needed working when I could

Keeping up my courage foolish as it seems

At night all alone in my dreams

In my dreams shadows call

There's a light at the end of a hall

Then my dreams fade away

But I know it all will come back

One day

I dream of a city beyond all compare

Is it Paris Paris

A beautiful river a bridge by a square

And I hear a voice whisper

I'll meet you right there in Paris

Paris

You don't know what it's like

Not to know who you are

To have lived in the shadows

And travelled this far

I've seen flashes of fire

Heard the echo of screams

But I still have this faith

In the truth of my dreams

In my dreams it's all real

And my heart has so much to reveal

And my dreams seem to say

Don't be afraid to go on

Don't give up hope come what may

I know it all will come back

One day
