Verse 1)
We was talkin’ on the phone late night till the sunrise,
Both said the same thing — saw each other in our mind’s eye.
Said, “I swear I dreamed your face before we ever met,”
Like destiny was callin’, like a moment Heaven set.
Met up in the moonlight, stars all in the sky,
Holdin’ one another close, young love in our eyes.
Sneakin’ little kisses while the whole world slept,
Felt like forever in them moments that we kept.
(Pre-Chorus)
She had kids, he stepped up, helped carry that load,
Never let her walk alone, always paved a road.
If she needed help, he’d reach inside his hand,
Made sure she was good — made her feel she had a man.
(Chorus)
Started with a dream, then it turned into real life,
Breakfast at Western Sizzler, talkin’ ’bout a future bright.
Late nights, sweet love, mornings felt so right,
But shadows in the distance slowly crept into the light.
Started with a dream, felt like Heaven sent above,
He helped her with her babies, always showed her honest love.
But truth can hit hard when the lies all unfold,
A heart that felt warm can turn bitter cold.
(Verse 2)
When she stayed the night, his folks would help out too,
Take the little one away so she could sleep the whole night through.
House full of kindness, family showin’ grace,
For a while she finally felt she found her safe place.
But whispers started comin’, rumors in the town,
Said the man she thought was faithful had been runnin’ all around.
Said she wasn’t the only one he had by his side,
And every promise that he made turned into another lie.
Jealous hearts were watchin’, people always had their say,
But she gave him all her trust — watched it fade away.
Now them dreams feel distant, like smoke up in the wind,
Still remember how it started… and how it had to end.
(Chorus)
Started with a dream, then it turned into real life,
Breakfast at Western Sizzler, talkin’ ’bout a future bright.
Late nights, sweet love, mornings felt so right,
But shadows in the distance slowly crept into the light.
Started with a dream, felt like Heaven sent above,
He helped her with her babies, always showed her honest love.
But truth can hit hard when the lies all unfold,
A heart that felt warm can turn bitter cold.
(Outro)
Funny how a dream can bring two souls together,
And funny how the truth can break what looked like forever.
Still she holds her head high, keeps pushin’ through the pain,
’Cause even after heartbreak… the sun still comes again.
