She's a Dream - Average White Band

Yes, she was beautiful

And she smiled at me

As she passed my way

In the heat of the noon day sun

Ohh the promise of those eyes

Got me hypnotized

I ask her to stay

And continue what she’s begun

She stayed and I wondered why

As the time flew by

Day faded away into the night

It all felt so perfect

When it dawned on me

I saw the light

She was a dream

Disappearing as quick

As she came into view

When I awoke to find

She was a dream

Tried to get myself back to sleep

To chase her shadow along the night

Keep this illusion alive

I felt that we’d met before

On another shore some other time

She was a love of mine

Ohh she was a dream

Thought that my ship had come in

Then I awoke to find

She was a dream

Every night I lay me down to sleep

I pray that I’ll find her again

Though I know in my heart

She’s a dream

She’s a dream

When I think of that island day

The ocean spray the burning sand

It all seems so real

And if we ever meet again

Somewhere out there

I know just how I feel

She was a dream

Every night I lay me down to sleep

I pray that I’ll find her again

Thought I know in my heart

She’s a dream

She’s a dream

Ohh, I know

She’s a dream

Just my imagination running away with me

Ooh I don’t even know her name

Ooh gonna find her — gotta find her

She’s a Dream

She’s a Dream
