D                  A/C#        A        E/G#
If these are the things that dreams are made of
F#m7        E/G#
Why don't I dream
    D  A/C# A E/G#   A/C# A E/G#
anymore?

D             A/C#        A        E/G#
I've tried to tell myself nothing's changed my dear
D            A/C#         A                    E/G#
But I look around me and think maybe that's not so
  D          A/C#         A             E/G#
I only have nightmares and wake up with cold sweat
 D                 F#m7
Coming through my pores...
             E/G#   F#m  D
Why don't I dream anymore

Chorus:
D
I'm in the garden
A         E            F#m
All the trees bear fruit
I have to pick them before they fall
I finally grab one
I hold it in my hand
I open it up
It's rotten to the core
Why don't I dream anymore?

If these are the things that
Dreams are made of
Why don't I dream a anymore?
We lose our patience
Lose our trust
Yes we lose our innocence
To forget our sorrow and hide our pain
We lose old memories
But dreams are what life's worth living for

I wish I could dream
Once more

Chorus

If these are the things that
Dreams are made of
Why don't I dream anymore?

I've tried to tell myself
It's all for the best my dear
But I look around me and think
Maybe that's not so
I only have nightmares
Wake up in a cold sweat
Have I become as corrupt
As all I abhor

Chorus

If these are the things that
Dreams are made of
If these are the things that
Dreams are made of
If these are the things that
Dreams are made of

I don't want anymore
