Track 4: "Only A Dream, But Please Don't Leave Me"

Once I was dancing with an imagined sweetheart in a dream. This song was coming to me while I was waking up.

Lyrics

Only A Dream, But Please Don’t Leave Me

© 2007 Michele Fairbairn

Only a dream
But please don’t leave me.
Only a dream
That you would love me.
Only a dream
We dance together.
Only a dream
We love each other.
Only a dream
But what is love?

Why do they call love only dreams?
Where do all great things begin?
And what my friend is the greatest thing
That can’t begin or end?

Only a dream
That you were really here.
Only a dream
But please don’t disappear.
Only a dream
We danced the night away.
Only a dream
But please don’t fly that way.
Only a dream
But a beautiful dream
Could be much more.

Why do they call love only dreams?
Where do all great things begin?
And what my friend is the greatest thing
That can’t begin or end?

Only a dream
But why must I wake up.
Only a dream
But please don’t let me wake up.
Only a dream
But why must I wake up.
Only a dream
But please don’t let me wake up.
Only a dream
But a beautiful dream . . .
