Was it just a dream
Did I feel your devotion
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions
I keep your photograph by my bed to remind me
that I was part of your life
I say my prayers to the sandman
that he'll find me fast asleep
Sleep has always been kind
And in my dreams you'll always be mine
But in the morning when I wake
I remember that my heart does ache
Was it just a dream
Did I feel your devotion
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions
Was it just a dream
Did I feel your devotion
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions
I admit that I did my bit to deceive you
But sometimes I was afraid
that this day would come
How could you just leave me all alone
I have always been strong
So I know that I can go on
But right now I feel so dead inside
Oh sleep come to me cause that's where I hide
Was it just a dream
Did I feel your devotion
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions
Was it just a dream
Did I feel your devotion
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions
All that I have all that I ask
All my dreams they fade so fast
Don't wake me up not today
All my dreams will fade away
I want him and I need him
I can't live and I'd die just to see him
Just to feel his hands on my face
Smell his skin and his warm embrace
Cause it's all that I have
And it's fading so fast
I have always been strong
So I know that I can go on
But right now I feel so dead inside
Oh sleep come to me cause that's where I hide
Was it just a dream
Did I feel your devotion
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions
Was it just a dream
Did I feel your devotion
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions
All that I have all that I ask
All my dreams they fade so fast
Don't wake me up not today
All my dreams will fade away
I want him and I need him
I can't live and I'd die just to see him
Don't wake me up not today
All my dreams will fade away
All that I have all that I ask
All my dreams they fade so fast
Don't wake me up not today
All my dreams will fade away
Did I feel your devotion
