I was in the middle of a dream
When the music came to me
I was in the middle of a deep, deep sleep
When the music sounded oh so sweet
Oh, I didn't want to wake up
This sort of thing I don't just make up
I was in the middle of a dream
When the music came to me
I was in the middle of a lie
When the colour caught my eye
I was in the middle of a falsehood babe
I didn't recognise that crazy shade
Oh, I didn't want to fess up
No matter how bad I had messed up
I was in the middle of a lie
When a colour caught my eye
I was in the middle of a song
Thought it might be goin' long
I was in the middle of a heart-felt tune
And I could feel the end coming soon
Oh, I didn't never want to let go
But I broke a chain all on its own, oh
I was in the middle of a song
And then the song was up and gone
