Dreams
Cranberries · Treasure Box: 1991-1999 (Dlx) [Box Set] - Disc 1
Is changing everyday
In every possible way
And all my dreams
It's never quite as it seems
Never quite as it seems
I know I've felt like this before
But now I'm feeling it even more
Because it came from you
And then I open up and see
The person falling here is me
A different way to be
Lalalaah lalalah lalalaah la la la
I want more (impossible to ignore)
(impossible to ignore)
And they'll come true (impossible not to do)
(impossible not to do)
And now I tell you openly
You have my heart so don't hurt me
You're what I couldn't find
A totally amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You're everything to me
All my life
Is changing everyday
In every possible way
And all my dreams
It´s never quite as it seems
Because you´re a dream to me (a dream to me)
laaah laa la la la la la la la laaahaah laaahaah la laa
laaah laa la la la la la la la laaahaah laaahaah la laa
laaah laa la la la la la la la laaahaah laaahaah la laa
laaah laa la la la la la la la laaahaah laaahaah la laa(fade)
