No Rules When You Dream
--words and music by Michael Stanley

It feels like it's rained since the end of December
And it seems like the cold it might never move on
And I pretend I'm still trying
And I could tell you that things are ok
But sometimes the truth, just gets in my way ...

	But, there's no rules when you're dreaming
	You can follow wherever they go
	You can soar like an eagle
	Or watch as the world spins below ...

	And you can be anything that you want to
	You can have anyone by your side
	But you're not here with me 
	So that's not the way that it seems
	Still there's no rules when you dream ...

You know this old town it won't change for nothing
And all the names and the faces
They just stay the same
And the streets are deserted and empty
All the windows and doors closed up tight
Might as well change the name here to nowhere
At least for tonight ...

	But, there's no rules when you're dreaming
	You can follow wherever they go
	You can soar like an eagle
	Or watch as the world spins below ...

	And you can be anything that you want to
	You can have anyone by your side
	But you're not here with me 
	So that's not the way that it seems
	Still there's no rules when you dream ...

		(Bridge)
		And just for a moment it feels like I've found you
		And if I don't open my eyes, maybe you'll stay ...

	But, there's no rules when you're dreaming
	You can follow wherever they go
	You can soar like an eagle
	Or watch as the world spins below ...

	And you can be anything that you want to
	You can have anyone by your side
	But you're not here with me 
	So that's not the way that it seems
	Still there's no rules when you dream ...
