[Verse 1]
You were talking in your sleep
The  secrets you were meant to keep
You  should've kept them in your head
But you let them out instead

[Chorus]
Some of us need it sometimes
A  dream is all I need to get by
Some  of us need it sometimes
A dream is all I need to get by
Some  of us need it

[Verse 2]
You were talking 'bout the past
The days you said would never last
And now, the future's well behind
But  I don't pay it any mind

[Chorus]
Some of us need it sometimes
A dream is all I need to get by
Some of us need it sometimes
A dream is all I need to get by
Some of us need it

[Refrain]
What for the love that got me so high?
Remember the days they made us feel so alive?
We're out on our own inside the city tonight
And tomorrow when the morning comes
I hope that you can walk it like you talk it, son
But now, the dream is over, the day is done
Say bye, bye
Bye, bye
Say bye, bye

[Bridge]
La-da-da, la-da-da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
La-da-da, la-da-da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

[Refrain]
What for the love that got me so high?
Remember the days they made us feel so alive?
We're out on our own inside the city tonight
And tomorrow when the morning comes
I hope that you can walk it like you talk it, son
But now, the dream is over, the day is gone
Say bye, bye
Bye, bye
Say bye, bye

[Chorus]
A dream is all I need to get by
A dream is all I need to get by
A dream is all I need to get by

[Outro]
I was talking in my sleep
The secrets I was meant to keep
I should have kept them in my head
But I just let them out instead
