Dreaming
Kevin Walker Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

i close my eyes, I pinch my arm
real on make believe
and well the skies and brace indeed
is this meant to be
if I am dreaming
let me be dreaming
this is the moment i've waited for
make it eternal
please make it last for evermore, for evermore
i dont want to know dont give me a clue
maybe just too good to be true
if i am dreaming
let me be dreaming
about you
weightless nest i fly i fly
i'm sailing on
a cloud
i see a glance of paradise
is it all just in this sky
if I am dreaming
let me be dreaming
this is the moment i've waited for
make it eternal
please make it last for evermore, for evermore
i dont want to know dont give me a clue
maybe just too good to be true
if i am dreaming
let me be dreaming
about you
dreaming what i've waited for
it's all about you
if I am dreaming
let me be dreaming
this is the moment i've waited for
make it eternal
please make it last for evermore, for evermore
i dont want to know dont give me a clue
maybe just too good to be true
if i am dreaming
let me be dreaming
about you




I close my eyes, I pinch my arm
real on make believe...
