Just A Dream
KAILA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Am I just dreaming (am I just dreaming)
Are you really here with me
Is this just a dream
Or are we in my fantasy?

Waking now (am I just dreaming)
It this just a dream
An empty bed or no more
No more you and me

Looking back to when our eyes first met
Before our love had any regrets
It was meant to be, a mystery
How you said to me
Said you would always cherish me
Love me oh so faithfully
You took your promise away
How did our love go astray?

Am I just dreaming (am I just dreaming)
Are you really here with me
Is this just a dream
Or are we in my fantasy?

Waking now (am I just dreaming)
It this just a dream
An empty bed or no more
No more you and me

Only memories of your last touch
Still I miss you so much
I want me and you, can I do
To take this pain away
Just to hold you in my arms again
Never look back on the pain
Now your love is gone
I'm all alone singing this song

Am I just dreaming (am I just dreaming)
Are you really here with me
Is this just a dream
Or are we in my fantasy?

Waking now (am I just dreaming)
It this just a dream
An empty bed or no more
No more you and me

Am I just dreaming (am I just dreaming)
Are you really here with me
Is this just a dream
Or are we in my fantasy?

Waking now (am I just dreaming)
It this just a dream
An empty bed or no more
No more you and me

You was always the girl my boys wished they had
At times when I was mad you would make me glad
Ma I pictured you out to be the perfect chick
Yah we went through our drama like any relationship
I thought it would go long
Turned around after a minute and you ended up doing me wrong
I'm in the Range sitting back contemplating leaving
So to answer your question, yeah, ma you're dreaming, wow

Am I just dreaming (am I just dreaming)
Are you really here with me
Is this just a dream
Or are we in my fantasy?

Waking now (am I just dreaming)
It this just a dream
An empty bed or no more
No more you and me

Am I just dreaming (am I just dreaming)
Are you really here with me




Is this just a dream
Or are we in my fantasy?
