ONLY THE DREAMS   LYRICS

ONLY THE DREAMS

Songwriter  JOHN HARVEY

I sit alone just looking at your picture
Reading old love notes
That you once wrote to me

I feel a cold sense of loneliness around me
For now I know
How much you meant to me

I still recall that you cried the day you left me
You looked at me
With eyes grown bright with pain

You turned around and walked out the door forever
Only the dreams
But nothing else remains

If I could turn the hands of time around
I'd take you back to the past
And I'd explain
That when you left and walked out the door forever
Only the dreams
But nothing else remained.
