Mark Heard - House Of Broken Dreams lyrics

Artist: Mark Heard

album: Dry Bones Dance


Hear the whistle blow
It echoes down my soul
It's something I have always known
Nothing sounds so sad
A cry to the unknown
The fundamental sigh of all who've gone this way before
Lay me down to sleep
Come and comfort me
I'll sleep in peace
In a house of broken dreams
I'm old enough to know
That dreams are quickly spent
Like a pouring rain on warm cement
Or fingerprints in dust
Nectar on the wind
Save them for tomorrow and tomorrow lets you down again
Lay me down to sleep
Come and comfort me
I'll sleep in peace
In a house of broken dreams
Give me the reasons to go on
Soften the sorrow that shatters and bends
And mend broken dreams
Sentimental hearts
Hungry for the past
Penniless at the wishing-well
Memories will last
And cover certain scars
Acquired in the daily grind of being what we are
Lay me down to sleep
Come and comfort me
I'll sleep in peace
In a house of broken dreams
