What Were You Dreaming? Lyrics

What were you dreaming before it was light?
What special place did you go for the night?
Off on a trip of my own, who knows where
What a surprise, awaiting me there

There stood my father, again, in his prime
Little had changed after all of this time
Honor the past, thought I'd learned this by now
But how to thank him, I still don't know how

Live to dream, rest in peace, wake to wonders that never cease
How do you, how did he, make the moment a masterpiece?

My father, the artist, his dreams came true The paintings he left me, I have just a few
My brother and sister, might well feel the same
If not for our lives, he'd have surely found fame

What are you dreaming, what did you decide?
Which new horizons are opening wide?
Welcome a glimpse of a face you've known well -
Someone who helped you stand up when you fell

Live to dream, rest in peace, wake to wonders that never cease
How do you, how did he, make the moment a masterpiece?
