It's A Dream [Swedish translation]

In the morning when I wake up and listen to the sound

Of the birds outside on the roof

I try to ignore what the paper says

And I try not to read all the news

And I'll hold you if you had a bad dream

And I hope it never comes true

'Cause you and I been through so many things together

And the sun starts climbing the roof

It's a dream

Only a dream

And it's fading now

Fading away

It's only a dream

Just a memory without anywhere to stay

The Red River stills flows through my home town

Rollin' and tumblin' on its way

Swirling around the old bridge pylons

Where a boy fishes the morning away

His bicycle leans on an oak tree

While the cars rumble over his head

An aeroplane leaves a trail in an empty blue sky

And the young birds call out to be fed

It's a dream

Only a dream

And it's fading now

Fading away

It's only a dream

Just a memory without anywhere to stay

An old man walks along on the sidewalk

Sunglasses and an old Stetson hat

The four winds blow the back of his overcoat away

As he stops with the policeman to chat

And a train rolls out of the station

That was really somethin' in its day

Picking up speed on the straight prairie rails

As it carries the passengers away

It's gone

Only a dream

And it's fading now

Fading away

Only a dream

Just a memory without anywhere to stay

It's a dream

Only a dream

And it's fading now

Fading away

It's only a dream

Just a memory without anywhere to stay

It's a dream

Only a dream

And it's fading now

Fading away
