I had a dream we were slow
Dancing to the ocean waves
Under a half exposed moon
So secure if we stay here forever
We still would have to go
Go and leave too soon

But it's all just a dream
The next day you didn't know me
And it's all just a dream
The next day you didn't hold me

And it hurts, hurts so bad
To have my sweet next day remind me
My sweet next day remind me
That it's all just a dream away

I had a dream that you wrote me a letter
Oh, your kisses placed so gently over
Every sentence formed oh, it felt so warm
And the words you wrote them

With so much conviction
Sweet like your perfumed neck
That you rub the paper on
But it's all just a dream
The next day you didn't know me
And it's all just a dream
The next day you didn't hold me

And it hurts, hurts so bad
To have my sweet next day remind me
My sweet next day remind me
That it's all just a dream away
Sweet next day remind me
