Chris De Burgh - In Dreams
CA candy coloured clown they call the Amsandman,
DmTiptoes to my room Cevery Gnight,
CJust to sprinkle star dust and to Amwhisper,
"Go to Dmsleep everyGthing is alCright"
N.C.                        C  Dm  
I close my eyes and I drift away,
And to the Gmagic night I softly Csay,
A silent prayer, like dreamers Dmdo,
Then I fall aGsleep to dream my dreams of Cyou
In dreams I Fwalk with Gyou,
In Fdreams I Gtalk to Cyou,
In Amdreams you're mine, Dall of the time,
We're toCgeDther Gin Cdreams, Din Gdreams
But Cjust beFfore the Cdawn,
I awake and Ffind you Cgone,
I can't help it,
I can't help it - if I Dmcry,
I reGmember when you said "goodCbye".
It's too bad that Fall these Gthings,
Can only Chappen Fin my Gdreams,
COnly in Dmdreams,
In Gbeautiful Cdreams,G  F  
COnly in Ddreams,
In Gbeautiful CdrFmeamCs.

Just to sprinkle star dust and to whisper,

"Go to sleep everything is alright"

I close my eyes and I drift away,

And to the magic night I softly say,

A silent prayer, like dreamers do,

Then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you

In dreams I walk with you,

In dreams I talk to you,

In dreams you're mine, all of the time,

We're together in dreams, in dreams

C F C

But just before the dawn,

F C

I awake and find you gone,

I remember when you said "goodbye".

It's too bad that all these things,

Only in dreams,
