Chasing Dreams

I'm counting the lights as they fade away,

Lost in the night, but I’m here to stay,

Thought I’d find gold if I worked real hard,

But all I found were these broken parts.

They told me, "Money is the way to be free,"

But it’s pulling me down like chains on my feet,

Now I’m running faster, feeling lighter inside,

Chasing dreams I left behind.

Oh, I’ve been chasing dreams in the dark,

Counting the moments, watching the sparks,

Not for the money or the fame in sight,

I just want to feel alive tonight.

Spent too long staring at empty walls,

Forgot who I am, got too close to the fall,

Now I’m breaking free, casting off this weight,

Finding the love I almost misplaced.

They said I’d be happy with gold in my hands,

But I found peace just making a stand,

It’s not the riches, it’s the passion I find,

In chasing dreams and leaving fear behind.

Oh, I’ve been chasing dreams in the dark,

Counting the moments, watching the sparks,

Not for the money or the fame in sight,

I just want to feel alive tonight.

No more chasing shadows, I’m chasing light,

Stepping from darkness, into what's right,

Letting go of all the weight I’ve carried,

Finding hope in dreams I buried.

Oh, I’ve been chasing dreams in the dark,

Counting the moments, watching the sparks,

Not for the money or the fame in sight,

I just want to feel alive tonight.

So here I am, in the quiet glow,

Chasing dreams only my heart will know,

No more counting riches, no more empty stars,

Just the beat of life, wherever you are.
