Lyrics of The Dream

The stars were bright
The moon was yellow
The evening was quite warm and mellow
The book I was holding
Was old and molding
Most of the pages were torn

As I held it in one hand
While stretched out on the sand
My thoughts began to wander
With a thought in my mind
The explanation I would soon find
Before the light of the morn

I no sooner closed my eyes
When to my surprise
I was in a place I'd been before
To me you were talking
As we were walking
Walking along the shore

As you came up behind me
You said I knew you would find me
I knew you would come back someday
And though the point might be mute
I always thought it was cute
That you could never find the right words to say

You were so real and forgiving
I knew, I knew I was living
Together we would be a beautiful team
But as the morning light
Ushered out the night
I realized you were only a dream
