The Life You Dream
Embrace the Sunrise: Living the Life You Dream with Judy Collins
Lyrics
There's a time that comes once every morning
Each morning brings a specific time
When you choose the kind of day you will have
You have the power to choose the nature of your day
It comes in with the sun and you know you've begun
Daybreak signifies the start of pursuing your envisioned life
To live the life you dream
To live according to your envisioned life
You can light all your candles to the dawn
Lighting candles symbolizes welcoming the day
And surrender yourself to the sunrise
Surrendering to the sunrise, accepting its energy
You can make it wrong you can make it right
You have the power to make choices that affect your life
You can live the life you dream
To live in accordance with your envisioned life
Pray to Buddha pray to Krishna pray to Jesus
Invoking various beliefs or influences
Or the shadow of the devil on your wall
Referencing different spiritual entities
Anyone you call, will come
Assurance that help is available when sought
The night comes to you dressed in darkness
Night arrives cloaked in darkness
Descends on your body like a blessing
Night's arrival is comforting and soothing
You can lie in its arms it will heal your heart
Night's embrace provides healing
You can life the life you dream
To live aligned with your envisioned life
You can wake in this vale of tears
Waking up amidst challenges and hardships
You can laugh like a child again
Finding joy and innocence despite difficulties
You can make it right you can make it wrong
Ability to alter paths and choices
You can live the life you dream
To live according to your envisioned life
What you see and you believe is not the answer
Beliefs and perceptions may not offer significant solutions
To anything that matters very much
Things you believe in might not hold great importance
Anything you touch...is gone
Things you hold onto are transient
In the valleys you look for the mountains
Constant search for something greater
In the mountains you search the rivers
Seeking meaning in various places
You have no where to go you are where you belong
Contentment in the present moment
You can live the life you dream
To live in accordance with your envisioned life
If you call him your master will find you
A figure of authority will assist if summoned
Seven bars on the gate will not hold him
Challenges or barriers won't confine the authority
Seven fires burning bright only give him delight
Offerings or efforts delight the authority
You can live the life you dream
To live aligned with your envisioned life
All your treasure buys you nothing but the moment
Material possessions hold temporary value
All your poverty has lost you everything
Lack of material wealth doesn’t equate to loss of everything
Love will teach your dream...to sing
Love will bring life to your aspirations
