The reality of dreams

Reality

Met you by surprise, I didn't realize

That my life would change forever

Saw you standing there, I didn't know I care

There was something special in the air.

Dreams are my reality

The only kind of real fantasy

Illusions are a common thing

I try to live in dreams

It seems as if it's meant to be.

Dreams are my reality

A different kind of reality

I dream of loving in the night

And loving seems all right

Although it's only fantasy.

If you do exist, honey, don't resist

Show me a new way of loving

Tell me that it's true

Show me what to do

I feel something special about you.

Dreams are my reality

The only kind of reality

Maybe my foolishness is past

And maybe now at last

I'll see how the real thing can be

Dreams are my reality

A wondrous world where I like to be

I dream of holding you all night

And holding you seems right

Perhaps that's my reality.
