Dream Again - Matthew West

One stopped on the day she heard him say

«I don’t love you anymore»

One stopped on the front porch, 6 years old watching dad walk out the door

Open your eyes

Open your eyes

And dream again

One stopped when the doctors said,

«You'll never have a baby of your own»

And one stopped after two attempts at rehab

Couldn’t help him get control

Open your eyes

Open your eyes

And dream again

Your lungs are still breathing

Your heart is still beating

The end’s where the future begins

Just open your eyes, open your eyes

And dream again

All your would’ve beens, your could’ve beens, your should’ve beens

Just give ‘em all to me

Take one last look at who you were

And now let me show you who you still can be

Open your eyes, just open your eyes

And dream again

I know the plans that I have for you

A hope and a future, a future

One starts at the altar where «I'll never love again» becomes «I do»

One starts with a whisper, child, you’ve always had a Father here with you

And one starts with a baby in the backseat that they thought they’d never be

bringing home

And one starts down on bended knee crying, «Jesus, I finally see,

I can’t beat this on my own»
