Lyrics
Living This Sweet Dream - Michel Rae Driscoll
Sharing this journey for all to see
My dreams, my life, my love brought to light
I've never felt so alive
I'm baring my soul, I've nothing to hide, nothing to hide
CHORUS: Am I dreaming this sweet life
Or living this sweet dream
Has fantasy become my reality
This is as a good as it gets, how did it get this good
The sweetest thing, oh the sweetest thing, is living this sweet dream
Here we stand, our time is now
All we've overcome to come this far (and now)
Walls climbed then broken down
And what's left to see, is what's meant to be just look at us now
CHORUS
My wildest dreams, are mesmerizing me
I'm watching these dreams come to be
Been down life's lonely road
To hear you say you love me, is what I've waited for, goodbye lonely road
CHORUS
IF this is all just a dream, please don't wake me, just let, oh just let it be
c 2008 Michel Rae Driscoll
