When I met you
in the restaurant
You could tell I
was no debutante
You asked me
what's my pleasure
A movie or a measure
I'll have a cup of tea
and tell you of my
Dreaming,
dreaming is free
Dreaming,
dreaming is free
I don't want to
live on charity
Pleasure's real
or is it fantasy
Reel to reel
is living rarity
People stop
and stare at me
We just walk on by
we just keep
on dreaming
Feet feet,
walking a two mile
Meet meet, meet
me at the turnstile
Never met him,
I'll never forget him
Dream, dream,
even for a little while
Dream, dream,
filling up an idle hour
Fade away, radiate
I sit by and watch
the river flow
I sit by and watch
the traffic go
Imagine something
of your very own
Something you
can have and hold
I'd build a road in gold
just to have some
Dreaming,
dreaming is free
Dreaming,
dreaming is free
Dreaming,
dreaming is free
Dreaming,
dreaming is free
