Do You Still Dream?

By Bruce Clifford

Do you still dream of unicorns and magical things?
Are you still bright-eyed exploring everything?
Where have the years gone, all we used to know?
Do you still dream of romantic themes?

We were so young, so very young.
I’ve still celebrated you on this day for all of these years.
Where has the time gone?
What have we learned?
Any pain you’ve had to endure has brought me to these tears.

Do you still dream of an entire world left to explore?
Are you still smiling like you did when I knocked on your door?
Where has the time gone, all we used to know?
Do you still dream of fantastic things?

We were so in tune. Just me and you.
I’ve never forgotten what this day has meant to me.
Where has this life gone?
What have we seen?
There has to be a way to get past these broken dreams/

Do you still dream of rainbows and mystical things?
Are you still bright-eyed and forgiving of my extremes?
Where have the years gone, all we could have known?
Do you still dream? Do you still dream?
