Something about this is precious, something about this is sad
Something about this is better, than i've ever had
Hard and lean, you know what i mean?
How do the roots become tangled? why does the spirit grow tired?
Where is the key to your kingdom? yes that's my desire.
Chorus:
There are those who live to count the cost
And then those who count themselves content
I see heaven wrapped up in a box
It is you come back to love again, in a dream, this living dream.
Up in a heap i'm not bothered, down in the dumps i'm okay
Here in my heart you're the best road, that i'll ever take, i'm serene yeh.
Chorus:
There are those who live to take the chance
And then more who find themselves content
I see heaven mapped out in advance
It is you and that's my journeys end, in a dream, this living dream.
I'm trying to hang on to the essence, i'm feeling more faint by the day
It took such a long time to get it, i don't want to see it erased
Chorus:
There are those who live to count the cost
And then more who count themselves content
I see heaven wrapped up in a box
It is you come back to love again, in a dream, this living dream
This living dream.
