Demis Roussos – Lost In A Dream lyrics

Lost in a dream
I saw you standing there
On the edge of a gleaming white chair
I asked you why and you started to cry
For at last you were going to fly

I thought it strange
So I said please don't go
Stay with me we can play in the snow
Your starry eyes told me it was goodbye
And in fact you flew off with a sigh

A dream is something we create
(Deep down inside our soul)
The world where we communicate
(with those we long to know)
Ohhhh Ohhhh...

Lost in a dream
I saw you disappear
In the night like a bitter sweet tear
Spinning around like a glimmering cone (???)
Off you fled with the first rays of dawn

When I awoke
It was late afternoon
At the door stood a clown with a broom
You'll have to leave
He told me with a sneer
Can't you see that your place isn't here

A dream is something we create
(Deep down inside our soul)
The world where we communicate
(With those we long to know)
Ohhhh Ohhhh...

*Chorus*
Lost in a dream
I saw you standing there
On the edge of a gleaming white chair
I asked you why and you started to cry
For at last you were going to fly

I thought it strange
So I said please don't go
Stay with me we can play in the snow
Your starry eyes told me it was goodbye
And in fact you flew off with a sigh
