The Dream

(Instrumental intro)

I was in a dream
A fanciful daydream
Dreaming of flying high
There was I
Soaring way up in the sky
Where not even eagles dare

You should have seen me
Living out my fantasy
Though I was there all alone
But without a care
Even though I could not share
Floating through the crystal air

The air so clear
I saw everything down there
No, I was not Superman
Just a soul set free
Can you not see
Free as any bird could be

With a kind of kinetic energy
Defying Earth’s gravity
Nothing could let me down
I was on cloud nine
As if the whole world was mine
Mine,  mine

(Instrumental interlude)        

What could possibly
Have possession over me
I didn’t care
Born on that rarefied air
  
Born on a breeze
Flying effortlessly
In a world all of my own
Levitating, I was levitating
In a kind of ecstasy
Or could it be
That she said she’d marry me
  
Was it a dream
On the edge of reality
Only time could tell.
