Only In Dreams Lyrics

I lie in bed and hear the sea
My mind is filled with things I'd be
I'm a perfect girl
Only in dreams
There is no longing, there's no ache
There's no promises to break
I'm a perfect girl
Only in dreams

I only see what I could be
I am fearless, I am free
It's a great escape, it's a perfect place to play

Only in dreams
Until my heart returns to me
Until the time that I find peace
I give myself
Only in dreams
Until my heart returns to me
Until the time that I find peace
I give myself
Only in dreams

I lie awake and hear the rain
My mind is filled with things I'd say
All the perfect words
Only in dreams

I see the way that things should be
I feel love surrounding me
It's a great escape, and I never want to leave

Only in dreams
Until my heart returns to me
Until the time that I find peace
I give myself
Only in dreams
Only in dreams

Can't take that away
My only escape
Can't take that away
My only escape
Can't take that away
Away from me

Until my heart returns to me
Until the time that I find peace
I give myself
Only in dreams
Only in dreams
Until my heart returns to me
Until the time that I find peace
I give myself
Only in dreams
Only in dreams

Only in dreams
Only in dreams

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
