Lyrics Van Morrison

Van Morrison

Only a Dream

Only a dream

That I had in the night

Only a dream

But It felt so right

We were standing in the moonlight

I was holding you tight

But it was only a dream

Only a dream

And that knocked me off of my feet

Only a dream

It was dancing in the street

And the big band kept on playing

Of Bonaparte's retreat

But it was only a dream

Only a dream

But somebody

Tried to knock it down

Only a dream

But that dream

Keeps hanging around

Only a dream

We were roiling in the snow

Only a dream

And we just couldn't let go

I sat outside the window

It was just like Romeo

But it was only a dream

Only a dream but somebody

Tried to knock it down

Only a dream but that dream

Is still around

Up on Mockingbird hill

And I'm feeling no pain

Ali the birds are singing

Their all so sweet refrain

If I had to do it all over

I'd do the same thing again

'cause it was only a dream

Oh 'cause it s only a dream

That knocked me off of my feet

Only a dream

We were dancing

Out in the street

And the big band kept on playing

Of Bonaparte's retreat

But it was only a dream

Oh but it was only just a dream

Din but it was only a dream

Oh but it was only a dream

Oh what a dream
