Oh, life it's bigger, it's bigger that you and you are not me
The lengths that I will go to, the distance in your eyes
Oh no I've said too much, I set it up
That's me in the corner, that's me in the spotlight, losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you and I don't know if I can do it
Oh no I've said too much, I haven't said enough
I thought that I heard you laughing, I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try
Every whisper of every waking hour I'm choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt lost and blind and bull fool
Oh no I've said too much, I set it up
Consider this, consider this a hint of the century,
Consider this, a slip that brought me to my knees, pale
What if all these fantasies come flailing around
Now I've said too much
I thought that I heard you laughing, I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But That was just a dream
That was just a dream
That's me in the corner, that's me in the spotlight, losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you and I don't know if I can do it
Oh no I've said too much, I haven't said enough
I thought that I heard you laughing, I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try
But that was just a dream
Try, cry, fly, and try
That was just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream
Dream
