Lyrics

VERSE
I watch the sun at eventide
Painting the sky with gold
Before the end of day,
Still, life's a dream they say.

That's how you make me feel inside.
You smile and turn away
But, maybe I'll dream
Another dream
And you will stay...

CHORUS
Some other dream
When wishes all come true
I'll have you.

Some other night,
Maybe no moon above,
But I'll have love.

Your eyes will offer everything,
As we walk hand in hand;
No need to ask if I will understand.

But see me now
Politely take your hand
And watch you leave.
I know inside that we were meant to be,
But that must have been
Some other dream.
