Icy Love And Hollow Stares

© 2009 Mark Cote

1. tissue paper houses, built on big dreams
    of growing into something real
    I look around, to see what they have found
    for a lesson has been learned
    the bigger you dream, the more you get burned
    but you've gotta dream, if it's all that you own
    when the loving house you built is not a home

(chorus) icy love and hollow stares
                from people who don't care
                reach out to you but you're not there
                for your heart needs the warmth
                of someone who is really there
                yes, your heart needs the warmth
                of someone who really cares

2. pipe dream visions, blowing smoke in my eyes
    blinding what I see
    your not driven, by what you see but what you hear
    your heart's song will lead you on
    it plays loudly, but only for you
    in shades of golden blue and honeydew
    when the world around, can be so loud
(chorus)

3. this bubble world, may one day burst
    with nothing to hold
    but the dreams you made,well they are real
    and will always live on
    I grew my dreams, when no one saw
    too busy, with their goals of straw
(chorus)
