Average White Band – She's A Dream lyrics

Yes, she was beautiful
And she smiled at me
As she passed my way
In the heat of the noon day sun
Ohh the promise of those eyes
Got me hypnotized
I ask her to stay
And continue what she's begun
She stayed and I wondered why
As the time flew by
Day faded away into the night
It all felt so perfect
When it dawned on me
I saw the light
She was a dream
Disappearing as quick
As she came into view
When I awoke to find
She was a dream
Tried to get myself back to sleep
To chase her shadow along the night
Keep this illusion alive
I felt that we'd met before
On another shore some other time
She was a love of mine
Ohh she was a dream
Thought that my ship had come in
Then I awoke to find
She was a dream
Every night I lay me down to sleep
I pray that I'll find her again
Though I know in my heart
She's a dream
She's a dream
When I think of that island day
The ocean spray the burning sand
It all seems so real
And if we ever meet again
Somewhere out there
I know just how I feel
She was a dream
Every night I lay me down to sleep
I pray that I'll find her again
Thought I know in my heart
She's a dream
She's a dream
Ohh, I know
She's a dream
Just my imagination running away with me
Ooh I don't even know her name
Ooh gonna find her - gotta find her
She's a Dream
She's a Dream
