Lyrics
IN MY DREAMS
VERSE 1
Many people passed my way today
Funny I just remember one
She smiled at me and I didn't know what to say
I knew my life had just begun
VERSE 2
But then it came to me, it was so hard to see
There wasn't anyone at all
She only came to me by way of reverie
I only dreamt the girl I saw
CHORUS: But I think maybe it all isn't real
For life's not always as it seems
I wish that I could live these things that I feel
They only happen in my dreams
VERSE 3
I always knew that I would be the President
Or someday write a top-ten song
Or find a wife that I believed was heaven-sent
But somehow it all turned out wrong
Repeat Chorus
BRIDGE: And I've often wondered
If I passed away today
Would the world even miss me
I guess not, I've dreamt my life away
VERSE 4
And now it's hard for me to find reality
I fear it might be ever gone
Most every part of me is filled with fantasy
I doubt I ever wrote this song
Repeat Chorus
