0:17I was not myself last night couldn't set things right with apologies or flowers
0:28Out of place as a cryin' clown who could only frown and the play went on for hours
0:39And as I lived my role I swore I'd sell my soul for one love
0:46Who would stand by me and give me back the gift of laughter
0:55One love who would stand by me and after making love we'd
1:04Dream a bit of style
1:11We'd dream a bunch of friends
1:17Dream each others smile
1:22And dream it never ends
1:27I was not myself last night in the morning light I could see the change was showing
1:38Like a child who was always poor reaching out for more I could feel the hunger growing
1:50And as I lost control I swore I'd sell my soul for one love
1:56Who would sing my song and fill this emptiness inside me
2:06One love who would sing my song and lay beside me while we'd
2:14Dream a bit of style
2:21We'd dream a bunch of friends
2:27Dream each others smile
2:33And dream it never ends
2:37All my dreams are lost and I can't sleep
2:51And sleep alone could ease my mind
3:01All my tears have dried and I can't weep
3:13Old emotions may they rest in peace and dream
3:29Dream a bunch of friends
4:33Rest in peace
4:36And dream
4:45Dream it never ends
I was not myself last night couldn't set things right with apologies or flowers Out of place as a cryin' clown who could only frown and the play went on for hours And as I lived my role I swore I'd sell my soul for one love Who would stand by me and give me back the gift of laughter One love who would stand by me and after making love we'd Dream a bit of style We'd dream a bunch of friends Dream each others smile And dream it never ends I was not myself last night in the morning light I could see the change was showing Like a child who was always poor reaching out for more I could feel the hunger growing And as I lost control I swore I'd sell my soul for one love Who would sing my song and fill this emptiness inside me One love who would sing my song and lay beside me while we'd Dream a bit of style We'd dream a bunch of friends Dream each others smile And dream it never ends All my dreams are lost and I can't sleep And sleep alone could ease my mind All my tears have dried and I can't weep Old emotions may they rest in peace and dream Dream a bunch of friends Rest in peace And dream Dream it never ends
