| [00:00.00] | Only A Dream Lyrics |
| [00:00.01] | Artist: The Kinks |
| [00:00.03] | Album: Phobia |
| [00:06.88] | |
| [00:11.46] | Standing by the elevator |
| [00:14.02] | Feeling gloomy and down |
| [00:17.39] | Waiting for the flashing light |
| [00:19.68] | To lift me up from the ground |
| [00:22.62] | Then the elevator opened |
| [00:24.59] | And I saw her standing there |
| [00:27.58] | She had to be a young executive |
| [00:30.73] | She looked so corporate and clean |
| [00:33.52] | And I thought I'd seen her somewhere before |
| [00:36.13] | On the cover of a magazine |
| [00:39.27] | I didn't think she'd even look at me |
| [00:41.61] | Or bother to glance my way |
| [00:44.45] | But she actually smiled at me and said |
| [00:47.65] | Hi-ya handsome, have a good day |
| [00:51.13] | |
| [00:51.40] | I must be dreaming if she looks at me |
| [00:56.38] | I gotta be dreaming, is it a fantasy |
| [01:01.53] | Now I've got positive emotions |
| [01:05.51] | Buzzing 'round every molecule in me |
| [01:08.21] | I gotta be dreaming, is it reality |
| [01:12.63] | But over and over I live that memory |
| [01:18.35] | Was it real or only a dream |
| [01:23.81] | La la la la |
| [01:29.87] | |
| [01:36.11] | Was it my imagination playing tricks on me |
| [01:43.00] | When she looked my way |
| [01:46.68] | Maybe she took me for somebody else |
| [01:51.54] | Whatever it was, it made my day, hey hey |
| [01:59.39] | I wake up in the morning |
| [02:02.17] | Smiling with anticipation |
| [02:05.05] | Suddenly I feel alive |
| [02:07.99] | Face the world with expectation |
| [02:11.13] | I must be dreaming, this is a smile upon my face |
| [02:16.39] | I got be dreaming this world is a better place |
| [02:21.35] | Was my imagination playing tricks on me |
| [02:27.11] | Was it real or only a dream? |
| [02:33.32] | I see a great big sunset |
| [02:37.25] | Where only clouds used to be |
| [02:42.72] | Was it all an illusion, is it fantasy |
| [02:51.51] | If it's just a dream |
| [02:54.14] | It's good enough for me, yeah yeah |
| [02:58.42] | |
| [02:59.30] | Waiting by the elevator |
| [03:01.08] | Feeling optimistic and keen |
| [03:04.04] | Waiting for my executive goddess |
| [03:06.58] | to appear as if in a dream |
| [03:09.12] | Then the elevator opened |
| [03:11.85] | She was talking to another guy |
| [03:14.34] | And I tried to say hello to her |
| [03:17.67] | But I failed to even catch her eye |
| [03:20.36] | Then everybody crowded inside |
| [03:23.61] | And I sadly stood my ground |
| [03:25.73] | Thinking life's just like that elevator |
| [03:30.94] | It takes you up and brings you down |
| [03:31.56] | |
| [03:31.80] | I must be dreaming if she looks at me |
| [03:36.67] | I gotta be dreaming, is it a fantasy |
| [03:42.39] | Now I've got positive emotions |
| [03:45.90] | Buzzing 'round every molecule in me |
| [03:49.23] | I gotta be dreaming, is it reality |
| [03:54.27] | But over and over I live that memory |
| [03:59.25] | Was it real or only a dream |
| [04:05.43] | La la la la |
| [04:15.31] | Was it only an illusion |
| [04:21.87] | Was it real or only a dream |
