How well I recall that day in the spring
You stood on the hill in that dress
The sun was as bright as your beauty, your smile
And I stood there no longer alone
We walked and talked for hours
But it passed by like minutes of the day
The feelings I felt then
I'm still feeling now
Some things can never change
No matter how hard you try
It's times like these
When all the worlds asleep
That I close my eyes and drift away with you
In my dreams, I am strong
I say the right things, and I'm never wrong
But it's only a dream
Yes, only a dream
I close my eyes and I am taken back
To the time of my life
To the dreams of my youth
Some things can't be repaired once broken
And it's my heart that now lies in tatters
It's times like these
When all the worlds asleep
That I close my eyes and drift away with you
In my dreams, I am strong
I say the right things, and I'm never wrong
But it's only a dream
Yes, only a dream
All the words that we left unspoken
Seem to come to life when I think of that day
So much pleasure gave so much pain
It would seem the feelings you had for me
Would never be felt again
Is this the price of loving you too much?
Twist the knife and kick the gaping wound
Where once you kissed away the pain
You laugh at the pieces and stab me once again
It's times like these
When all the worlds asleep
That I close my eyes and drift away with you
In my dreams, I am strong
I say the right things, and I'm never wrong
But it's only a dream
Yes, only a dream
