  • Oh I know, I'm only dreaming.
    'Cause I'll awake, and you'll be gone.
    And my tears will still be streaming.
    As my broken, heart beats on.

    Yes I know, I'm only dreaming.
    But I'll just, keep dreaming on.
    I will dream about the pleasures.
    That we shared in days gone by.

    And I'll remember and I'll treasure,
    Every kiss and your kind eyes.
    And I will dream that you still hold me,
    In your arms as you did then.

    And I recall each thing you told me,
    Hear your voice as I did then.
    Yes I know, I'm only dreaming.
    But I'll dream, and I will too.

    I'll be here, and I'll be waiting,
    And I will dream, of your return.
    Some will say I'm being foolish,
    While some will say that I'm just blind.

    And that I want to face what the truth is
    That you are, no longer mine.
    But I will dream, your brave stallion
    To some sweet day, to their surprise.
    You will say your love's still burning,
    You'll dry each tear drop from my eyes.

    But I know, I'm only dreaming,
    Cause I'll awake and be alone.
    And my tears will still be streaming,
    And you will still be just as gone.

    Yes I know I'm only dreaming,
    But I must keep dreaming, on Writer/s: DOLLY PARTON
