"It was just a dream" (Song)



"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)
