Decades, light up even in your old age
Finds you even in your birdcage
Breaking curfew like a child
Her face lives in pictures of a lost age
All that's precious to a hostage
Oh, you're ailing but alive
She waved goodbye
But, the last you ever loved was the May of 45
When everyone loved her, and ever the soldier
Never stepped out lineof
Dream on, dreamer...
Die for, only medal worth the fight for
Torch you carried through a world war
Love's remaining out of time
We cleared the skies
But the last you heard her name was the May of 45
When everyone called her, suffer enraptured

Ringing in Auld Lang sine
Dream on, dreamer...
Dream on...
Dreamer....

Dream on - in time this carnival will fade
Dreamer - under the shadow of the planes
You pray old age won't dull her name...
