Making Peace With a Dream That Won't Come True

You're the guy who's always on the run
 I tried to catch you baby, just for fun
 I stood and waited right outside your door
 And I tried to call it fate when you knocked me to the floor
 I tried to make you love me and you thought you could
 You divied up your heart the way you thought you should
 And I held it all together with staples and glue
 Now I'm making peace with a dream that won't come true
 Some people dream they're gonna walk on Mars
 Or climb up a mountain till they touch the stars
 Or dive to the bottom of the ocean blue
 My big dream was being perfect for you
 I tried to make you love me and you thought you could
 You divied up your heart the way you thought you should
 And I held it all together with staples and glue
 Now I'm making peace with a dream that won't come true
 When you couldn't be a lover
 I became a fighter
 You dimmed your torch
 I burned mine brighter
 Then I lost my will
 And you wouldn't lift a finger
 Now our love is gonna be
 A dream without a dreamer
 I'm no quitter but I've had enough
 I've got a stack of better dreams to love
 Right now that's exactly what I'm gonna do
 Now that I'm not so busy chasing after you
 I tried to make you love me and you thought you could
 You divied up your heart the way you thought you should
 And I held it all together with staples and glue
 Now I'm making peace with a dream that won't come true
