Melissa Etheridge Lyrics
"Am I Only Dreaming"

You softly whisper "I love you"
Your finger tips run through my hair
You hold me so tightly and kiss me, and tell me
you'll always be there.
I reach for you with a smile as I slowly open my eyes
But the wrong man is sleeping beside me
The night has been filled with more lies

Am I only dreaming my lifetime away
Doesn't seem that long ago you told me you'd stay.
I can still remember when you loved me too.

Now I look at someone else and wish it was you.

Just go away, I don't want to dream of how it use to be
I have someone in my life why can't he have me.
Just go away and leave my dreams, it really don't seem fair,
that I should lie here every night and dream that you still care.

Am I only dreaming my lifetime away
Doesn't seem that long ago you told me you'd stay.
I can still remember when you loved me too
Now I look at someone else and wish it was you.
I wish it was you.
