The day that you moved away, life was so empty All I had left, was your memory (memory-memory) Livin' it seems what was left, was a dream A dream of the way it used to be But I can't live a dream Anymore that I can live forever Anymore that I can climb a mountain to the sun (to the sun) No I can't live a dream Anymore that I can move a mountain Anymore that I can live my life, without you (Can't live no I can't live no I can't live no no no no) All of the things I've done, leaving me lonely All of the nights I've missing you only (lonely-lonely) I spend my time, with one thing on my mind Just closing my eyes, dreaming of you! But I can't live a dream Anymore that I can live forever Anymore that I can climb a mountain to the sun (to the sun) I can't live a dream Anymore than I can live forever Anymore that I can climb a mountain to the sun (to the sun) Noo I can't live a dream Anymore that I can move a mountain Anymore that I can live my life without you
