van morrison - only a dream (live) lyrics
[verse 1]
it was only a dream that i had in the night
only a dream, but it felt so right
we were standing in the moonlight
holding you tight but it was only just a dream
[pre-chorus]
only a dream, knocked me off my feet
only a dream, we was dancing in the street
and the big band kept on playing, bonaparte’s retreat
but it was only a dream
[chorus]
only a dream
but somebody tried to shoot it down
only a dream
but that dream is still around
[verse 2]
it was only a dream, we were rolling in the snow
only a dream
just couldn’t seem to let go
sat outside your window
felt like romeo
but it was only a dream
[instrumental]
[chorus]
only a dream
but somebody, oh somebody tried to shoot it down
(shoot it down)
only a dream
but that dream is still around
[verse 3]
up on mockingbird hill and i’m feeling no pain
birds are singing, oh, their all so sweet refrain
if i had to do it all over, do the same thing again
it was only a dream
[bridge]
oh that dream
knocked me off my feet
band in new orleans
we were dancing in the street
the band kept on swingin
bonaparte’s retreat
only a dream
[ad lib]
bonaparte’s retreat
bonaparte’s retreat
bonaparte’s retreat
[outro: instrumental]
