[Chorus]
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop loving you
[Verse 1]
The worst that I've ever been hurt in my life
The first time I ever have wanted to die
Was the night when you told me you loved someone else
And asked me if I could forget
[Chorus]
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop wanting you
[Verse 2]
You may teach the flowers to bloom in the snow
You may take a pebble and teach it to grow
You may teach all the raindrops to return to the clouds
But you can't teach my heart to forget
[Chorus]
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop loving you
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop loving you
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop loving you
[Verse 1]
The worst that I've ever been hurt in my life
The first time I ever have wanted to die
Was the night when you told me you loved someone else
And asked me if I could forget
[Chorus]
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop wanting you
[Verse 2]
You may teach the flowers to bloom in the snow
You may take a pebble and teach it to grow
You may teach all the raindrops to return to the clouds
But you can't teach my heart to forget
[Chorus]
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop loving you
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop loving you
