Dream the Night Away Lyrics

It's 5 o'clock, I think I'll find my way downtown
I try to turn my mind off, but I don't know how
Let me dream the night, dream the night away
Don't make me dream the night, dream the night away

How can I help but hate the way I feel?
Make sense of memories that won't make them real?
Whoa
Dream the night, dream the night away
Dream the night, dream the night away

Sometimes the love you make can break your heart
Just when it seems so easy, then it all falls apart

I feel so helpless when I think of you
I never said those things I thought you knew
Hey!
Dream the night, dream the night away
Dream the night, dream the night away

(You've got to dream the night)

Dream the night, dream the night away
Dream the night, dream the night away

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

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.
