With blood on my hands
I lay down by your side
I simply tell you
Had another dream
You never question
What I have to do
It won't come between me and you

Your power of forgiveness cleanses me
Some people need the hero I can be

I have to dream again
I know you understand
I know you feel the truth
Stay close at hand

I have to dream again
No question why
You've seen the good I do
Stay by my side

Deep inside you know
What I can't hide
It's a gift that I can't keep inside
To help the victimized
That's my role
This quiet justice
Sometimes has a toll

Your power of forgiveness cleanses me
Some people need the hero I can be

I have to dream again
I know you understand
I know you feel the truth
Stay close at hand

I have to dream again
No question why
You've seen the good I do
Stay by my side

I have to dream again
I know you understand
I know you feel the truth
Stay close at hand

I have to dream again
No question why
You've seen the good I do
Stay by my side

I have to dream again
I know you understand
I know you feel the truth
Stay close at hand

I have to dream again
No question why
You've seen the good I do
Stay by my side"
