I can’t remember the dream that i had last night
But i woke with delight and excitement
And then when i tried to remember the dream that i had last night
It was gone, but the feeling i had in the dream stayed on
When i’m awake and i look around me
I can faithfully record everything that i can see
Most of my memories tend to be sad
So i wish i could remember the dream that i had
I can’t remember the drеam that i had last night
If i could i would write it out, underline thе highlights
Of the dream that would now redefine my life
Be a new road map, affirmation and guiding light
When i’m awake, i note all that i see
And remember it with photographic accuracy
Most of my memories tend to be bad
And i’m sad i can’t remember the dream that i had
Why can’t i remember it when
I can’t forget unpleasant thoughts? i want to push them away
They creep like weeds, like weeds, they cover all the flowerbeds
I can’t remember the dream that i had last night
But the simple fact that my mind could concoct such a thing
As the incredible dream that i had last night
Is a clue to the key to a door to a world like that
My daily life doesn’t interest me
It’s a never-ending litany of pain and ennui
This waking nightmare is driving me mad
And i wish i could remember the dream that i had
When i’m awake, i note all that i see
And remember it with photographic accuracy
All of my memories make me feel bad
And i’m sad i can’t remember the dream that i had
Why can’t i remember the dream that i had?
Wish i could go live in the dream that i had
