Everytime I Dream
YUSUF ISLAM
Every time I dream I keep seeing streets and alleyways
Places that I've never known
Every time I dream I am being lifted to a height that I too frightened to go
Then I wake up and find everything's away it seemed one night ago
Every time I sleep I keep hoping
This would be the night of nights that I see you again
As I close my eyes like rims and curtains slowly rising on an empty stage
Then I'm back in the stall sitting all alone waiting for the show to begin
Every time I dream I would often find myself running from a wild pack of lies
Till I reach your house and I hear the judge upstairs
And look for a place to hide
But if I saw you there I wouldn't dare dream again of opening my eyes
