Dreams That We Don't Share
Story Untold Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every time I think finally found
Someone who wants it as bad as I do
I get stuck here for another round
By myself with no one else to turn to

I'm tired of running after dreams that we don't share
I'm tired of chasing stars for those who just don't care

And I'm on my own
Singing my songs alone
All my friends are gone
But I ain't coming home
Till my time is up

(Woh oh oh)
(Woh oh oh)

I can't see another life for me
Everything I got, everything I want is who I am
So bury me inside de record sleeves
'Cause I'm not giving up, doing what I love as long as I can

I'm tired of running after dreams that we don't share
I'm tired of chasing stars for those who just don't care

And I'm on my own
Singing my songs alone
All my friends are gone
But I ain't coming home
Till my time is up

Till my time is up, till my time is up
Till my time is up

(Woh oh oh)
(Woh oh oh)
(Woh oh oh)
(Woh oh oh)

I'm tired of running after dreams that we don't share
I'm tired of chasing stars for those who just don't care

And I'm on my own
Singing my songs alone
All my friends are gone
But I ain't coming home
Till my time is up

Till my time is up, till my time is up
Till my time is up

(Woh oh oh)
(Woh oh oh)
