I Was Only Dreamin' lyrics

She left her shoes out on the beach.

She left my dreams just out of reach.

She left her footprints on the sand.

She was a bird right in my hand.

I met a girl that made me laugh.

She left a faded photograph.

I thought I heard a siren song.

I sang along but I was.

I was only dreamin'.

I was only dreamin'.

Visions in my head,

talking in my sleep.

Turning in my bed,

but I was only dreamin'.

I met a girl that talked in rhyme.

I met a girl who took her time.

I saw the ocean in her eyes.

I saw myself unrecognised.

And all the stars up in the sky

felt down like rain and made me cry.

I held the world right in my hands.

I held her close but I was.

I was only dreamin'.

I was only dreamin'.

Visions in my head,

talking in my sleep.

Turning in my bed!

Life was so complete,

but I was only dreamin'.

I was only dreamin'.

I was only dreamin'.

Vision in my head,

talking in my sleep.

Turning in my bed!

Life was so complete!

Her shoes were on that beach,

but I was only dreamin'.
