Karl Ellis - Only in My Dreams Lyrics

For some it is an island
For some it is a stream
For you it is a moment
A fleeting happy dream

I really don't know how or why
But to me it always seems
The only time I see you smile
Is only in my dreams
Only in my dreams

For him it is a burden
A road that never ends
A shroud of obligation
A reason to pretend

I really don't know how or why
But to me it always seems
The only time I see you smile
Is only in my dreams
Only in my dreams

For her it is an endless tide
Of dirt and pain and fear
For her it is a smiling face
To crush the flow of tears

I really don't know how or why
But to me it always seems
The only time I see you smile
Is only in my dreams
Only in my dreams

Don't look down, just look up
Raise your hands towards the sky
Don't wait for your dream, it's already here
If you just open up your eyes

I really don't know how or why
But to me it always seems
The only time I see you smile
Is only in my dreams
Only in my dreams
