You appeared when I was lost in reverie If this is not a dream, it's my mistake And now I lie in wait for dawn to break I'm fairly sure I'm wide awake Pardon me, if I seem distant and strange Just tell me when did I stop dreaming? Let me get this straight Did I hallucinate? This fine and helpless feeling Tell me when did I stop dreaming? Let me know if you can help me explain I didn't recognise the danger
But people will talk Was I just sleepwalking? Footprints left on the ceiling Tell me when did I stop dreaming? Then why should you care? This is my nightmare Was this one dream too deep? Now if I could only sleep Answer me, if you see the end in sight I'm just a soul who's lost in limbo Neither bad or good I'd spare you now if I could One more teardrop Then I'll wake up Tell me when did I stop dreaming?
