Only a Dream

Standing by the elevator
Feeling gloomy and down
Waiting for the flashing light
To lift me up from the ground

Then the elevator opened
And I saw her standing there
She had to be a young executive
She looked so corporate and clean
And I thought I'd seen her somewhere before
On the cover of a magazine

I didn't think she'd even look at me
Or bother to glance my way
But she actually smiled at me and said
"Hi-ya handsome, have a good day!"

I must be dreaming if she looks at me
I gotta be dreaming, is it a fantasy?
Now I've got positive emotions
Buzzing 'round every molecule in me
I gotta be dreaming, is it reality?
But over and over I live that memory
Was it real or only a dream?

Na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na
Na na na na na na na na
Was it my imagination playing tricks on me, when she looked my way?
Maybe she took me for somebody else
Whatever it was, it made my day
Hey, hey!

I wake up in the morning
Smiling with anticipation
Suddenly I feel alive
Face the world with expectation
I must be dreaming, is this a smile upon my face?
I gotta be dreaming, this world is a better place
Was it my imagination playing tricks on me?
Was it real or only a dream?

I see a great big sunset
Where only clouds used to be
Was it all an illusion?
Is it fantasy?
If it's just a dream
It's good enough for me
Yeah, yeah!

Waiting by the elevator
Feeling optimistic and keen
Waiting for my executive goddess
To appear as if in a dream
Then the elevator opened
She was talking to another guy
And I tried to say hello to her
But I failed to even catch her eye
Then everybody crowded inside
And I sadly stood my ground
Thinking life's just like that elevator
It takes you up and brings you down

I must be dreaming if she looks at me
I gotta be dreaming, is it a fantasy?
Now I got positive emotions
Buzzing 'round every molecule in me
I gotta be dreaming, is it reality?
Over and over I rewind that memory
Was it real or only a dream?

Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na
Na na na na na na
Was it only an illusion?
Was it real or only a dream?

Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na
Na na na na na na na na
I'm only dreaming
I'm only dreaming

Na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na
Was it real or only a dream?
