Five Past Dreams
Album The Road To Freedom / Five Past DreamsBy Chris de BurghWrittern by Chris de Burgh

It’s five past dreams, I should be home asleep,
But I just want to keep this moment alive, it’s just you and I,
And I can’t deny that I’ve had too much to drink tonight,
But everybody’s gone, and we’re still going strong,
Thinking of bed, dancing instead, you’re lovely in red;

And we are moving cheek to cheek, and I know that I’m with
The only one who makes it right, it’s in your eyes, and your smile,
And the way you look tonight;

It’s five past dreams, the world is waking up, just like I should
Have done a long time ago, maybe I’m slow, I just didn’t know,
That the saviour of my heart is right here, in my arms, you are
The one who makes it right with your eyes, and your smile,
And the way you look tonight;

And I know that I’m with the only one who makes it right,
It’s in your eyes, and your smile, and the way you look tonight;
With your eyes, and the way you look tonight.

   

The Journey
Album The Road To Freedom / Five Past DreamsBy Chris de BurghWrittern by Chris de Burgh

Go with love upon your journey, go with wonder in your heart,
May the light be there to guide you through the terrors of the dark,
You have always been a good friend, but I won’t know when you
Have arrived, and I wish that I could see you one more time;

There’s a rainbow on the water, there’s an eagle in the sky,
Can you hear me up where you are, can you see me when I cry?
You have left so much behind you, all the love you have given life,
And I wish that I could hold you one more time;

And they are always here beside us in a parallel point of view,
And still they call, the ones who’ve gone before,
Will you take me by the hand when I come through?

You have left so much behind you, all the love you have given life,
And I wish that I could hold you one more time;

Yes they are always here beside us, in a parallel point of view,
I hear them call, the ones who’ve gone before,
Will you bring me to the light when I come through?

Go with love upon your journey, go with wonder in your heart,
May there be someone beside you, who can hold you in the dark,
When you get down to the river, don’t pay him till the other side,
And I wish that I could see you one more time, how I wish that I
Could see you one more time.

Go with love upon your journey.

   

Even Now
Album Five Past DreamsBy Chris de BurghWrittern by Chris de Burgh

Even now,
when I think of all the summers that have gone,
and all the friends and lovers I have known,
still there is a memory that will not let me go,

And I see your face,
and suddenly its just like yesterday,
a photograph that never fades away,
taking me to a place I thought I had left behind.

Even now, I wake up in the night because your name,
has been wispered in my dreams,
and I still miss you, even now.

And I wonder why,
after all the years that we have been apart,
recently an aching in my heart,
is bringing you back to me,
are you out there calling me?

Even now, I think of how you're living every day,
because there is someone who can say
I still miss you, even now.

Even now, I wake up in the night, because your voice,
has come wispering in my dreams,
and I feel that you are near,
and I call your name,
and I believe that there will be a day,
when I will hold you once again,
cause I still miss you, even now.

What I'm trying to say is I still love you, even now.

Even now.....
