This dream I'm dreaming
Won't you wake me up tonight
'Cause this life I'm living
Doesn't really feel like mine
This strange dream I'm dreaming
If it ain't wrong it don't feel right
Never thought you were leaving
I never thought I'd have to start again
Somebody wake me up
Don't you wish we were dreaming
Don't you wish that we were just dreaming
I never thought the stars would look new again
Thought we'd get old, get dressed, and walk the dogs
Never really thought I'd have to be alone
I never thought you'd ever really be gone
But I still sing along
To yesterday's song
I got lost in the tall green grass
Oh I'm so lost in the tall green grass
Got on the phone and called a friend
Asked him where the hell I am?
Somebody wake me up
Don't you wish we were dreaming
Don't you wish that we were just dreaming
Don't you wish that we were just dreaming
