"It
was just a dream"
When I set my eyes on
you I knew I was in love
I saw the twinkle in
your eyes they looked just like a dove
The feelings emanated
from your soul and penetrated mine
I had never, felt
this way before, for such a long, long time
Chorus
Then I woke up from my sleep darn
it was just a dream
Fallin’ in love all over again it
wasn’t quite what it seemed
Those feelings of kissin’ you and
holdin’ you so tight
They were just, all, in my head,
as I was sleepin’ at night
I knew that you were
married and I was married too
We both had kids and
families didn’t know what to do
When we held each
other’s hand and it came as no surprise
I knew I was in love
again as I gazed into your eyes
Chorus
Then I woke up from my sleep darn
it was just a dream
Fallin’ in love all over again it
wasn’t quite what it seemed
Those feelings of kissin’ you and
holdin’ you so tight
They were just, all, in my head,
as I was sleepin’ at night
Some folk won’t
understand when they see just how I feel
Expressed in words of
what I felt even though it was surreal
I hadn’t felt this
way for many years the way it had been
I had never been in
love like this, since I was eighteen
Bridge
Everybody wants to feel loved
Everybody wants to feel loved
Everybody wants to feel loved
Even if it is a dream
It helps them every day
As they try to find their way
Everybody wants to feel loved
Even if it is a dream
One day, I’ll capture that love
One day, I’ll capture that love
One day, I’ll capture that love
If given half the chance
It’s out there waitin’ for me
I know this is my destiny
One day, I’ll capture that love and
I’ll begin to dance
The one regret that I
had, my dream it wasn’t true
‘Cause I know deep
down in my heart I was so in love with you
I have to say when I
woke up those feelings were not gone
That’s why I had to
write it down and sing it in a song
That’s why I had to
write it down and sing it in a song
Chorus
Yep! I woke up from my sleep darn
it was just a dream
Fallin’ in love all over again it
wasn’t quite what it seemed
Those feelings of kissin’ you and
holdin’ you so tight
They were just, all, in my head,
as I was sleepin’ at night (X2)
