When I met you in the restaurant <br />You could tell I was no debutante <br />You asked me what's my pleasure <br />A movie or a measure? <br />I'll have a cup of tea and tell you of my dreaming <br />Dreaming is free <br />I don't want to live on charity <br />Pleasure's real or is it fantasy? <br />Reel to reel is living rarity <br />People stop and stare at me We just walk on by - we just keep on <br />dreaming <br />Feet feet, walking a two mile <br />Meet meet, meet me at the turnstile <br />I never met him, I'll never forget him <br /><br />Dream dream, even for a little while <br />Dream dream, filling up an idle hour <br />Fade away, radiate <br /><br />I sit by and watch the river flow <br />I sit by and watch the traffic go <br />Imagine something of your very own <br />Something you can have and hold <br /><br />I'd build a road in gold just to have some dreaming <br />Dreaming is free <br />Dreaming <br />Dreaming is free <br />Dreaming <br />Dreaming is free <br /><br /><br /><br />
