THE INSTITUTE OF DREAMS Human nature beams for all to see, the story now unfolds As they wonder into wonderland, their lives the starring role He makes his move so carefully, as he takes her by the hand He whispers that he loves her, so she fails to understand Strolling loves, angelic passages, with visions crystal clear He demonstrates his love for her; she hides away her fears He showers her with prizes; she’s the first in his love life! He piles on the emotions, but she don’t want to be his wife You and I will build a dream together, give me your heart I will love forever When I hold your hand, I start to understand What they mean when they say love, what we mean when we say love Well now you really better love me so, or I will hate your guts! Your mine all mine, no ifs, or buts, no one else must ever touch And to you I now give all my heart, as I knew I would right from the start Our gold band now engages us within the institute of dreams They ride the path towards married bliss, but something’s just not right Those visions now seem so distorted, they disagree and fight Both now miss their freedom, but this contract they have created In acceptance with society’s morals, a tradition that’s so dated Looking back in time, she thinks what's life got in store from here Confused, twisted, sick inside, he drowns in another beer With tears in eyes, he walks away, he convinced that, that is that! But absences make the heart grow fonder, and now he begs her to come back She finds a man to compensate, he wins at home, she plays away It’s been going on a while now? All seems lost is it too late? But meanwhile he is out there finding solace with another She holds sweet truth, he keeps dark secrets, she looks, he knows he loves her But he also dreams up images of all the thoughts of her he has missed They patch it up for the umpteenth time as this tale takes another twist Loves a never-ending question always asking why is it wrong? To hold love and feelings for more than one and well, that’s another song
