when everything is dark
you lose yourself in thought
and just when you hope it lasts forever
abruptly something has brought you back to a world
that's not as clever
your suppose to be awake
when you talk to the people
whose half-hearted smiles say they really don't give a shhhh
when your in a dream
awake or asleep
life's so easy
everything is right
the people they don't lie
they don't look at you and smile
pretending everything is alright
everything's what you want it to be shhhh
when your in a dream
life's what you want it to be
awake or asleep
life's so easy
when everything is dark
it's only you and the moon
you know you'll be dreaming soon
for the first time your truly happy
virtually any emotion you want to be
you don't have to give a shhhh
when your in a dream
awake or asleep
when your in a dream
life's so easy
your always happy
when your in a dream
