lyrics

IT SHOULDN’T HAPPEN TO A DREAM
Millions of stars playing tag in the skies,
All of my hope living right in your eyes;
So much at stake, and then I wake up,
It shouldn't happen to a dream!

Light-fingered clouds tuck the moon into bed,
I feel your lips turn my heart on its head!
Then comes the ache, again I wake up,
It shouldn't shouldn't shouldn't happen to a dream!

The flowers get happy and dance in the lane,
The darkness no longer is deep.
We're meant for each other, and it's perfectly plain
Each time I walk in my sleep!

Here comes the night cutting capers again;
Just for a while you'll be with me, and then
The bubble will break, again I'll wake up,
It shouldn't happen to a dream!
