Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Like Alice in wonderland
The dream takes you by the hand
Inside emotions that you might not feel
If by some notion the dream was not real
[Verse 2]
The dream
The dream
The dream
[Verse 3]
Watching the colours as they run
Figures in mould like the sun
Lovers can dream
Devils can dream
You may no nowhere
Until you have seen
[Verse 4]
The dream
The dream
The dream
[Verse 5]
Oh, what have I done?
Close my eyes and I dreamed of some one
It could be magic, it could be tragic
[Verse 6]
Please
[Verse 7]
The dream
The dream
The dream
Whoa
Written by: George O'Dowd, Jon Moss, Michael Emile Craig, Roy Ernest Hay
