The sun risin' up in a bloodred sky

And the first few rays threw some light on my eyes

Woke me up from a dream

I wish it could be real

Mmm, I wish it could be real

Ooh, I wish it could be .......

Flown back in time for ages I could see

Everything untouched, no damage done by factories

No smelly gasoline, a time where man rides horse

Where war means man to man fights

Without nuclear force

Ooh, when I'm dreaming

Ooh, when I'm dreaming

Searching in darkness, what did I find

The opposite of reality reflected in my mind

Returning from my journey during the night

I realise, it's not too late to fight

Ooh, when I'm dreaming

Ooh, when I'm dreaming

When I'm dreaming

I'm draining away in fantasy

When I'm dreaming

I'm floating on clouds far above the sea

Giving me a sign at the sky-line

I see the outsiders of the storm

Open your eyes and realise

It's getting close

We can't close our eyes for a world outside

Where mother nature's screaming for mercy

Where Jesus' face slowly maims in acid rain

Though we failed back in the past

We keep on going against the grain

Ooh, when I'm dreaming

Ooh, when I'm dreaming

When I'm dreaming

I'm draining away in fantasy

When I'm dreaming

I'm floating on clouds far above the sea

Giving me a sign at the sky-line

I see the outsiders of the storm

Open your eyes and realise

It's getting close

When I'm dreaming ......
