There's not a day that goes by that I wonder where I'd be
there's a hole, I can't seem to fill and sometimes I can't breathe
I've had so much to be thankful and I am
but I need the dream to fill the emptiness

sometimes I need you, sometimes I cry
wanna start over and be a child
sometimes I dream of you, sometimes I pray
that if you were here I'd have no fear

happiness is a state of mind that happens from within
sometimes I feel it but then it dies or maybe I stop believin'
I've had so much to be thankful and I am
but I need the dream to fill the emptiness

please give me the strength
to believe in me again
turn the flame into fire
feel this burning desire
just let me feel

sometimes I need you, sometimes I cry
wanna start over and be a child
sometimes I dream of you, sometimes I pray
that if you were here I'd have no fear
