In My Dreams

There was a time some time ago,
when every sunrise meant a sunny day, oh a sunny day.
But now when the morning light shines in,
it only disturbs the dreamland where I lay, oh where I lay.
I used to thank the lord when I'd wake,
for life and love and the golden sky above me.
But now I pray the stars will go on shinin', you see in my dreams you love me.

Daybreak is a joyful time.
Just listen to the songbird harmonies, oh the harmonies.
But I wish the dawn would never come.
I wish there was silence in the trees, oh the trees.
If only I could stay asleep,
at least I could pretend you're thinkin' of me.
'Cause nighttime is the one time I am happy, you see in my dreams...

**chorus**

We climb and climb and at the top we fly.
Let the world go on below us, we are lost in time.
And I don't know really what it means,
all I know is that you love me, in my dreams.

**end chorus**

I keep hopin' one day I'll awaken,
and somehow she'll be lying by my side.
And as I wonder if the dawn is really breakin',
she touches me and suddenly I'm alive.

**chorus**

**repeat chorus**

Oho, in my dreams.
