Lyrics
Better Than a Dream
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I used to dream myself to somewhere else each night
I dreamed in colour,
'cos I lived in black and white.
Until I chanced upon this road that led to you,
I couldn't see
How anything could be
Chorus:
.. Better than a dream
Stranger than my wild imagination
If this is a real sensation,
it's better than a dream.
Higher than the moon,
Hazy like a beautiful illusion.
Crazy and in confusion,
And better than a dream.
I used to wish I was beyond some distant door,
I knew there must be more to life
and now I'm sure.
No dreams of pirate caves,
or indian braves, or magic carpets could
Ever be this good,
Chorus..
And better than a dream.
