My daddy here's a businessman
Got a big old castle in Switzerland
And a mansion by the sea.
He spends his time with queens and kings
And fills his pockets with diamond rings
And he brings them home to me
Oh yes, he brings them all home to me.

Dreaming, helps you make it through the day
Dreaming, when there's nothing left to say
Dreaming, helps to take the pain away
Me, I live in dreams.

My husband here's a movie star
Comes home every night in a brand new car
And he calls me the perfect wife.
We got a big old house with a hundred rooms
And a fine rose garden that always blooms
It's a very happy life
Oh yes, it's a very happy life.

Dreaming, it's a way to pass the time
Dreaming, everything will work out fine
Dreaming, it's the only thing that's mine
Me, I live in dreams.

With the dishes done and the kids all gone
I stand and I stare at the old brown lawn
And I close my eyes; now I'm free.
Down my walk comes a handsome man
Who takes me by my rough red hand
And he heals it with a kiss
Says, "Let me take you away from all of this."

Dreaming, no it's not the same as lies
Dreaming, it's the easiest disguise
Dreaming, that there's love still in your eyes
Me, I live in...

Dreaming, it's a way to pass the time
Dreaming, everything'll work out fine
Dreaming, it's the only thing that's mine
Me, I live in dreams
Me, I live in dreams
Me, I live
In dreams.
