Debarge - A Dream

------------------------------------------------------------

Last night I dreamed

That you were here with me

And we were in each others arms

It was oh so heavenly

You held me close to you

And whispered in my ear

"Let's build a life together"

Sharing love beyond compare

Cm Fm

As we danced to the melody

Bb Eb

We had so much to share

(Then the music stopped)

Cm Fm Bb

In a flash I was all alone

(It was just a dream)

Haunting me once again

[Chorus:]

Cm Fm

A dream, a simple fantasy

Bb Eb

That I wished was reality

Cm Fm

That you come knocking at my door

Bb Eb

And we relive this dream once more

The day you left

You said you would return

Just when you wouldn't promise

Said you needed time alone

You said you loved me

And some day our love could be

I couldn't understand it

I thought that we were both happy

Cm Fm

As we danced to the melody

Bb Eb

We had so much to share

(Then the music stopped)

Cm Fm Bb

In a flash I was all alone

(It was just a dream)

Haunting me once again

[Chorus:]

Cm Fm

A dream, a simple fantasy

Bb Eb

That I wished was reality

Cm Fm

That you come knocking at my door

Bb Eb

And we relive this dream once more
