(dream on, dream on)

I can see
No matter how near
you'll be
You'll never belong to me
But I can dream, can't I?
Can't I
pretend that I'm locked in the bend of your embrace?
For dreams are just
like wine
And I am drunk with mine

I'm aware
My heart is a sad
affair
There's much disillusion there
But I can dream, can't I?
Can't
I adore you
Although we are oceans apart?
I can't make you open your
heart
But I can dream, can't I?

I'm aware
My heart is a sad
affair
There's much disillusion there
But I can dream, can't I?
Can't
I adore you
Although we are oceans apart?
I can't make you open your
heart
But I can dream, can't I?

(dream on, dream on, dream on)
