Tonight I had you coming back to me
Can you tell me that you're not a dream?
Now I'm lost in the thought that I can hold you near
I was dreaming that you'd be here

Drowning in the beauty of your eyes
Smiling as I hold you in my arms
Oh, we keep on dancing to the morning light
Can you stay just for a little while?

How I wish that time could stop tonight!

Singing in my head,
You're the only melody
Singing in my head,
You're a poem from within
Oh, why can't you be with me?
Oh, you're nothing but a dream.

Now again, I wonder how
You're so close, but yet, so far?
Oh, I don't really want to let it go
Can I hold you just a little more?

Please, don't wake me up tonight!

Singing in my head,
You're the only melody
Singing in my head,
You're a poem from within
Oh, why can't you be with me?
Oh, you're nothing but a dream.

Mmm, just don't wake me up tonight!

Singing in my head,
You're the only melody
Singing in my head,
You're a poem from within
Oh, why can't you be with me?
Oh, you're nothing but a dream.
Oh, I wish that you were here,
Oh, you're nothing but a dream.
