Lyrics Mike Oldfield – No Dream
Text:
An empty chair,
Is someone sitting there?
Footsteps on the ground.
Can you hear that sound?
On a lonely wind.
Whispering leaves
In the branches that bend.
Chorus 1
This ain’t no dream, babe.
Alone in the night.
Turn on the light, this ain’t no dream.
This is no dream.
You didn’t read this is no book.
Go take a look, this ain’t no dream.
A restless flame,
Someone calls your name.
Through the empty hall,
Casting shadows on the wall.
In the sound of emptiness,
Isolation.
Nowhere left to run,
Now the time has come.
Repeat Chorus 1
An open door,
Glass all on the floor.
Hands have turned to white
In the cold breeze of the night.
There’s a face at the window.
Someone who you know
Could that somebody be me?
Chorus 2
Dream, babe,
Alone in the night.
Turn on the light, this ain’t no dream.
This is no dream.
This ain’t no book.
Go take a look, this ain’t no dream.
Repeat Chorus 2 (x2)
Dream, babe.
Dream, babe.
This ain’t no dream.
Go take a look!
Dream, babe.
Dream, babe.
Repeat Chorus 2
