As soon as my eyes
Shut
The slide show begins
Yesterday is gone now and panic sets in
With a weight upon my chest
And a ghost upon my back
And the numbing sensation
Of everything I lack
That leaves me
Dreaming
Dreaming
Dreaming
Ooh
Your real
World
Away
And beautiful
Beautiful bright eyes
Lie
Only beautiful
Oh, beautiful bright eyes
Cry
Singing late morning lullaby

The first sign of morning is
Gray and alarming
It's so disappointing
The day has come so soon
While
The rest of the world
Greets the day and feels new
I will push it away
Just like I always do
I will be
Dreaming
Dreaming
Dreaming, ooh
Your real
World away
And beautiful
Oh, beautiful bright eyes
Lie
Only beautiful
Oh, beautiful bright eyes
Cry
Singing late morning lullaby
Late morning lullaby

Oh, I would darken my window
So I can fall asleep
While
The critics frown down
On the hours I keep
That leave me
Dreaming
Dreaming
Dreaming, ooh
Your real world away
