One time not so long ago
I was searching for things I didn't know.
One time not so far behind
I was certain of things I thought were mine.

This is what I found
A new sun rising
Will one day come down

And it's just like you wanted
And it's just like a dream
And it's all that you thought
That you would ever need and...

One time replayed in my mind
I was coming up for the first time.
One place where I left no trace
I was reading the look on every face.

Time is not your friend moments all reaching an end
Time finds a way to pass time seconds to the hourglass
All that you thought you had passes like another fad
Coming to your wit's end starting all over again

And it's just like you wanted
And it's just like a dream
And it's all that you thought
That you would ever need and...

And it's just like you wanted
And it's all that you need
And it's all that you thought
That you would ever need...

One day I woke up and I found that
Nothing was as it seemed
One day I found that nothing was
Left of perfection but perfect memories

This is what I found
A new sun rising
Will one day come down

And it's just like you wanted
And it's just like a dream
And it's all that you thought
That you would ever need and...

And it's all you wanted
And it's just like a dream
And it's all that you asked for
What you wanted to be

Is it just like you wanted
Because nothings for free
Is it all that you thought
You would ever be?
