Hello, I think I'm now awake
Sorry, I made the mistake
Of dreaming it was you

Goodbye, to that castle in the sky
To my prince from lives gone by
I guess it was just a lie

The time, the time, the time
The time keeps slippin away

True love
The idealistic daydream
Close my eyes
Cause it's only when I'm asleep

Lay me down
Idealistic daydream
And forever counting your sheep
I just want to go back to...

So I ask you now
How'd you take my breath away
How'd you touch my soul that day
Never intending to stay
Never intending to stay

The time, the time, the time
The time keeps slippin away

True love
The idealistic daydream
Close my eyes
Cause it's only when I'm asleep

Lay me down
Idealistic daydream
And forever counting your sheep
I just want to go back to sleep
