Any more and I might learn to leave things as they stand   People do what they like, that much is sobering   But nothing less than a miracle could answer to all my pleas   Hope for my wish, the waves of a parting sea, yeah baby   I could use a little thunder and lightning from the sky   So should I leave these precious dreams, will not die      How to live by the rules when I've read this book before   There's no courage to prove, just your reasoning   Faces of forgotten men much too afraid to ask   Like cogs in a wheel, we long to keep turning back   I've got to keep from going under while running for my life   So should I leave these precious dreams, will not die      After years of uncertainty I wait for the final round   Losing my place, you call me to calm you down   I could use a little thunder and in someone to confide   So should I leave these precious dreams, will not die   A little thunder and lightning   So when I leave these precious dreams, will not die
