Melanie Safka Lovers lullaby Lyrics

t__le: Lovers lullaby (One dream of you)
Artist: Melanie Safka
[Written by Melanie Safka-Schekeryk]
[1983]

And when I remember
how good your love feels
The real world goes slipping away
And though it's just dreaming
I make your love true
And I trade in this real world
for one dream of you

I go to a clearing
in the woods that we share
When the real world
holds us apart
Though I can't hold your hand
and I can't kiss you there
I will die in this real world
to live in your heart

And though over simple
is there anything else
Sometimes I awaken
to question myself

Oh what fools, what children,
to follow the heart
For a dream that might last
just one night
But something that doesn't
speak English says do
And I trade in this real world
for one night with you

And something with wings
and speaks only in blues
Tells me trade in this real world
for one night with you
