This rope that I've went and hung my self with

is wearing paper thin but it use to have a little width

Now I'm hanging on for dear life at the end of this string

praying let me down gently for I'm holding on to my dream.

Let me down gently for I'm holding on to my dream

don't let me fall hard or you'll hear me when I scream

your name as I cry it out loud at the end of the scene

praying let me down gently for I'm holding on to my dream.

Holding on to this dream for it's all I have left

Holding on to this dream for it was the best

Holding on to this dream though it may not be right

Holding on to this dream with all of my might.

I'm hanging on by a prayer this song and my dream

but a nightmare is coming will it be to late to see

that when I do drop you'll drop away from me

so let me down gently for I'm holding on to my dream.

My dreams of you baby and your dreams of me

of being together forever near the ocean that's down by the sea

but we'll drift away on the day that you set me free

so let me down gently for I'm holding on to my dream.

Holding on to this dream for it's all I have left

Holding on to this dream for it was the best

Holding on to this dream though it may not be right

Holding on to this dream with all of my might.
