Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sweet dreams of you
Every night I go through
Why can't I forget you
And start my life anew?
Instead of having sweet dreams about you
[Verse 2]
You don't love me, it's plain
I should have known you'd never wear my ring
I know I should hate you
The whole night through
Instead of having sweet dreams about you
[Verse 3]
Sweet dreams of you
Every night I go through
Why can't I forget you
Start loving someone new?
Instead of having sweet dreams about you
Instead of having sweet dreams
About you
