The air-raid sounding

As the people scream!

And the giant vultures

Are eating up my dream!

Oh, heaven help me

Wake me from this sleepless life!

I married myself

And now I've become my wife!

And now I'm caught

In a dream within a dream!

And it ain't sweet as it may seem!

Am I awake now?

Or am I still asleep?

Good god almighty

This river's cold and deep!

I start to panic

As the water takes my head!

Am I in the water?

Or am I in my bed?

You know I'm caught

In a dream within a dream!

And it ain't sweet as it may seem!

I can't wake up...

I can't wake up...

I can't wake up!

Walking through the graveyard

Hear footsteps close behind!

I look back quickly

But there's no one there to find!

I wake up shaking

Jump right to my feet!

Look back, I'm still in bed

The sequence just repeats!

You know I'm caught

In a dream within a dream!

And it ain't sweet as it may seem!

Caught in a dream within a dream!

And it ain't sweet as it may seem!
