[Verse 1]
I drift in cinematic skies as I fall asleep
I see the image lighting up like a silver screen
Every morning I come back
Back from brilliant scenes
Where you're shining in my dreams
Yeah, you're shining in my dreams

[Verse 2]
On that Atlantic City night when you promised me
You gave away the smoke and tears, now we're breathing free
Every kiss was a gamble
Every hand was free
Now we're winning in our dreams
Yeah, we're winning in our dreams

[Chorus]
Dream of waking up
Dream of waking up
Dream of waking up
Dream of waking up

[Verse 3]
Every message is burning
Every medium's cool
But you know I wouldn't have it any other way
Every thought is a crossword
Every laugh is a song
And you know I wouldn't have it any other way

[Verse 4]
And then you left your passport home so we drove all night
Half the city was still asleep as you slipped inside
Every border we'd break down
Every night get lost
And they're jealous of our dreams
Yeah, they're jealous of our dreams

[Chorus]
Dream of waking up
Dream of waking up
Dream of waking up
Dream of waking up
Dream of waking up
