| [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 |
