I was sleeping soundly once upon a night
when I had a simple dream
There you were not saying a word
All I heard was our heart beating.

You were bent on picking apples from the apple tree
when you glanced my way.
With a hand you blocked the sun from your eyes and
smiled an everlasting smile.
It was so unfortunate
that my alarm clock told me

you're just a dream
you're just a dream
you're just a dream,
but I'd just love to make you real.

you're just a dream
you're just a dream
you're just a dream
but I'd just love to make you real.

Next night I saw the end of
bloody miscommunication.
All the sides they
dropped their weapons and they
drooped their heads in shame and clarity.
All of us who watched from the sidelines
breathed a sigh.
Then I awoke and saw the paper with the people dying on the cover.

you're just a dream
you're just a dream
you're just a dream
but I'd just love to make you real
but I'd just love to make you real
