Chorus:

Was it just a dream?

Did I feel your devotion?

Dreams are never what they seem

Did we just go through the motions?

I keep your photograph by my bed to remind me

That I was part of your life

I say my prayers to the sandman

That he'll find me fast asleep

Sleep has always been kind

And in my dreams you'll always be mine

But in the morning when I wake

I remember that my heart does ache

(chorus, repeat)

I admit that I did my bit to deceive you

But sometimes I was afraid

That this day would come

How could you just leave me all alone now

I have always been strong

So I know that I can go on

But right now I feel so dead inside

Oh sleep come to me, cause that's where I hide

(chorus, repeat)

All that I have, all I ask

All my dreams, they fade so fast

Don't wake me up, not today

All my dreams will fade away

And I want him, and I need him

I can't live and I'd die just to see him

Just to feel his hands on my face

Smell his skin, and his warm embrace

Cause it's all that I have

And it's fading so fast

Mmmm, mmmm

Uh, uh huh

Now I have always been strong

So I know that I can go on

But right now I feel so dead inside

Oh sleep come to me, cause that's where I hide

(chorus, repeat)

All that I have, all that I ask

All my dreams, they fade so fast

Don't wake me up, not today

All my dreams will fade away

[Was it just a dream?]

And I want him, and I need him

I can't live and I'd die just to see him

Don't wake me up, not today

All my dreams will fade away

[Was it just a dream?]

All that I have, all that I ask

All my dreams, they fade so fast

Don't wake me up, not today

All my dreams will fade away
