Lyrics of You can sleep while i dream

(written by: bon jovi)

You're boy sits down to write a song 'cause he thinks he's got something to say
Innocence thinks it can change the world but the world keeps getting in the way
It's a small list for the optimist who believes that he can fly
In a long line full of pessimists to stop him every time he tries
Some people see things as they are and ask,"why?"
I dream things that never were, i take my shot and say, "why not?"
Chorus:
(hey, hey, hey) this one's for the dreamers
(hey, hey, hey) doubting disbelievers
Get out of my way
I bend but i aint' breaking
Scared but i ain't shaking
Baby, you can sleep while i dream
Convicted by convictions, they were carving out your cross
They came to take your measurements just to show you who's the boss
Until i reach that promised land i won't stop
When i get there i'll shake your hand so meet me on that mountaintop
Chorus:
(hey, hey, hey) this one's for the dreamers
(hey, hey, hey) doubting disbelievers
Get out of my way
I bend but i aint' breaking
Scared but i ain't shaking
Baby, you can sleep while i dream
(hey, hey, hey) this one's for the breathing
(hey, hey, hey) forgotten and the bleeding
I may whisper but i'm screaming

I got angels, i got demons
Baby, you can sleep while i dream
I'm not suggesting that you fly with me (yeah, yeah)
Well here's a dose of some reality (yeah, yeah)
You're swinging at a change-up, boy you better shape up, here comes the wrecking
Ball
Good morning, here's your wake-up call
Chorus:
(hey, hey, hey) i feel the change a comin'
(hey, hey, hey) see that train a comin'
(hey, hey, hey) this one's for the dreamers
(hey, hey, hey) doubting disbelievers
Get out of my way
I bend but i ain't breaking
I'm scared but i ain't shaking
Baby, you can sleep while i dream
(hey, hey, hey) this one's for the breathing
(hey, hey, hey) the dying and the bleeding
Get out of my way
I may whisper but i'm screaming
I got angels, i got demons
Baby, you can sleep while i dream, when i dream? and i dream? i dream?
(hey, hey, hey) i can feel the change a come
(hey, hey, hey) i see that train a coming
Can you see it?
