dunes of sand

To this world I came, I came innocent, with nothing, absolutely nothing, in my hand
Here I lay, here I crawled, searching for something, in these lonely dunes of sand
Because deep in my heart, lay the dreams, the dreams of a distant dreamland

Every inch and second I sweated and toiled for the desire to create
Stopping at times to watch the dreams come true,
Coz the energy for my dreams, from my dreams I drew
And at times to rest, before starting again, needing to rejuvenate

I walked in the day and I walked in the night, till I reached the gates
The gates of my dreamland with a feeling that success creates
The love, the life, the feeling and the ambition, mine
Were all for me to have an experience so divine

When to touch it, to feel it, all that I had to do was to stretch my hand
It disappeared, faded away, leaving me in my dunes of sand

Under the starlit sky, in the cool breeze, like a soldier slain
I lay on my back and closed my eyes, to dream again

As a beginning always follows an end
I got up and with mud dirty hands
Began to collect and clear the sand
For a new dream, a new dreamland

For surely yes, this is life, you lose and you get
You break and you make
You dream and you desire, you work and you sweat
And what ever else that it may take

To create in the dunes of sand, your own, very own, dreamland.
