lyrics

Dreamland
the first night was the sweetest night
it held the hope of the unknown
the first night was the sweetest night
it held the hope of the unknown
the way you moved me was a crime
all night so dark and intertwined
when morning came we tried to climb
to the outer edge of dreamland
everybody loves a good surprise
as we slowly pulled away the big disguise
and stared into each other's eyes
and we didn't have to look away
the first night brought back memories
of heartache and possibility
the first night brought back memories
of heartache and possibility
the way you moved me was a sin
i played a game i could not win
still i tried so hard to enter in
to the outer edge of dreamland
