Always In Disguise Lyrics - Singles - Peter Himmelman

I had so many dreams that would not fly 

They fell like August rain before my eyes 

I reached out and they were gone 

Like the moonlight in the dawn 

The most precious things are always in disguise 

Looking back I always seemed unwise 

But time has cut my ego down to size 

Well that's just the way it goes 

When we were young, I guess we just didn't know 

The most precious things are always in disguise 

And time has become my crucible 

It's tempered all my vanity and glory 

For all that's inexcusable 

I want to tell you that I'm sorry 

So hold me now and watch as the moon does rise 

It's funny that it takes so long just to realize 

You could wait a lifetime for a night like this 

A thousand years for just one kiss 

The most precious things are always in disguise
