Lyrics: Solomon Burke. Don't Give Up on Me. Only A Dream.
Only a dream that I had in the night
Only a dream but It felt so right
We were standing in the moonlight
I was holding you tight but it was only a dream
Only a dream and that knocked me off of my feet
Only a dream, it was dancing in the street
And the big band kept on playing of Bonaparte's retreat
But it was only a dream
Only a dream but somebody tried to knock it down
Only a dream but that dream keeps hanging around
Only a dream, we were roiling in the snow
Only a dream and we just couldn't let go
I sat outside the window, it was just like Romeo
But it was only a dream
Only a dream but somebody tried to knock it down
Only a dream but that dream is still around
Up on Mockingbird hill and I'm feeling no pain
All the birds are singing, their all so sweet refrain
If I had to do it all over, I'd do the same thing again
'Cos it was only a dream
Oh 'cos it's only a dream that knocked me off of my feet
Only a dream, we were dancing out in the street
And the big band kept on playing of Bonaparte's retreat
But it was only a dream
Oh but it was only just a dream, din but it was only a dream
Oh but it was only a dream, oh what a dream
Only a dream but It felt so right
We were standing in the moonlight
I was holding you tight but it was only a dream
Only a dream and that knocked me off of my feet
Only a dream, it was dancing in the street
And the big band kept on playing of Bonaparte's retreat
But it was only a dream
Only a dream but somebody tried to knock it down
Only a dream but that dream keeps hanging around
Only a dream, we were roiling in the snow
Only a dream and we just couldn't let go
I sat outside the window, it was just like Romeo
But it was only a dream
Only a dream but somebody tried to knock it down
Only a dream but that dream is still around
Up on Mockingbird hill and I'm feeling no pain
All the birds are singing, their all so sweet refrain
If I had to do it all over, I'd do the same thing again
'Cos it was only a dream
Oh 'cos it's only a dream that knocked me off of my feet
Only a dream, we were dancing out in the street
And the big band kept on playing of Bonaparte's retreat
But it was only a dream
Oh but it was only just a dream, din but it was only a dream
Oh but it was only a dream, oh what a dream
Solomon Burke
