I can see a steeple – surrounded by people
Oh how real it all starts to seem
Just as the choir is singing – my alarm starts ringing
It’s the same old dream
And then my thoughts inspire – a scene by a fire
In a cottage close by a stream
I know it all by heart now – we’re about to part now
It’s the same old dream
If you but knew
How many times i pretend – that i’m with you
I’m sure your heart would unbend – you’d see me through
Until my dream had a happy ending
And i can picture clearly – the things i love dearly
In the center you reign supreme
We kiss and i discover – i’m a lonesome lover
It’s the same old dream
