Poor Helpless Dreams Lyrics - Exit Strategy Of The Soul - Ron Sexsmith

of all the virtues known to man 

patience is one i understand 

it's in the coming through the coming through 

where it pays off in the end 

we've all been distracted by the unreal 

told to take shortcuts sold to make deals 

but it's in the coming through the coming through 

where a true heart is revealed 

i can't give up on all these poor helpless dreams 

for what have they got if they don't have me 

poor helpless dreams 

got to face up to my responsibilities 

no they don't have much they're counting on me 

poor helpless dreams 

they'll not desert you so don't you cry 

it's not some heroic sacrifice 

baby it's nothing new it's nothing new 

but it can get you though your life
