A Man Who Can't Dream

Verse 1

He had hands that held but never reached
Eyes that saw but could not seek
He spoke in facts, not in fire
And never thought about what his heart desired

Pre-Chorus

I tried to paint the sky in his shade
But he only saw the lines I made
No hunger for unknown tides
Just comfort on the safer side

Chorus

Never fall in love with a man who can’t dream
Who won’t chase the wild or dive into unknown seas
He’ll cut off your wings,
He'll dim your light
He'll Trade your sunrise for a silent night
But Love needs vision,
Love needs flight
Not just a heartbeat, but loving insight
Never fall in love with a man who can’t dream
Or you’ll soon forget what dreaming means

Verse 2

He built his life with measured steps
But he never danced,
He never wept
He feared the fire,
He feared the fall
So he never ever truly lived at all

Bridge

Give me a soul that dares to lose
That sees the world in divine truth
A man that speaks in poems, not just plans
And gives me the stars with his trembling hands

Final Chorus

Never fall in love with a man who can’t dream
Who won’t believe in what can’t be seen
He’ll love your body, but will put out your flame
And leave your spirit cold and shamed
Love needs wonder,
love needs grace
A man who dreams will give your dreams space
Never fall in love with a man who can’t dream
Or you’ll forget your sacred divinity
You’ll forget your sacred divinity
