Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You can't resist her
She's in your bones
She is your marrow
And your ride home
[Verse 2]
You can't avoid her
She's in the air (In the air)
In between molecules of
Oxygen and carbon dioxide
[Chorus]
Only in dreams
We see what it means
Reach out our hands
Hold onto hers
But when we wake
It's all been erased
And so it seems
Only in dreams
[Verse 3]
You walk up to her
Ask her to dance
She says, "Hey, baby
I just might take the chance"
[Verse 4]
You say, "It's a good thing
That you float in the air (In the air)
That way, there's no way I will crush (I will crush)
Your pretty toenails into a thousand pieces"
[Chorus]
Only in dreams
We see what it means
Reach out our hands
Hold onto hers
But when we wake
It's all been erased
And so it seems
Only in dreams
[Outro]
Only in dreams
Only in dreams
Only in dreams
Only in dreams
Only in dreams
Only in dreams
