Tamara De Lempicka

"Real"

Last night I dreamed...
I dreamed of places I haven't seen for long
Of scenes in old photos coming to life
Of black and white pages glowing bright
Of broken frames shattering on the floor
But they were only dreams...
Only dreams

Last night I dreamed...
I dreamed of faces I've never seen before
Of shadows that followed me wherever I go
Of footsteps that disappeared on the sand
Of smiles that faded in the sun
But they were only dreams...
Only dreams

Last night I dreamed...
I dreamed of voices ringing in my brain
Of sad goodbyes touching my heart
Of broken tunes playing all night
Of distant voices screaming in fright
But they were only dreams...
Only dreams

Yet when I awoke
I was alone still
It wasn't a dream
They were all real
