Lyrics for Turn on a Dream

We're too far away from each other We got to get together Because all I want to do is think about you Don't you know there's no other? Turn on a dream, girl It's a beautiful thing to dream, girl Just think about you and me, yeah, and how it could be Why can't you see? What can I do? You won't let me show you Don't you know that I know you? When I'm down and my daytime's blue, I get by thinking of you Just turn on a dream, girl Because all I wanna do is dream, girl Just think about you and me, yeah, and how it could be Why can't you see? I close my eyes, I can see I can feel that it's real I can turn out the sad, turn on the glad Shifting sand like an hourglass Waiting for the time to pass But I'll keep waiting, like I always do Dreaming sunny dreams of you Just turn on a dream, girl It's a beautiful thing to dream, girl Just think about you and me, yeah, and how it could be Why can't you see? Yeah
