I ONLY CRY IN MY DREAMS             Download Lyrics    Download MP3


Words and music by Gwynn Torres and Sid Berger



VERSE 1: Days go by, one at a time,
Drifting by like a pantomime.
Don’t worry about my state of mind,
I’m doing well, I’m doing fine.

VERSE 2: This silly smile is my alibi,
When I’m staring at an empty sky.
Don’t be concerned, though you hear me sigh,
I’m doing well, I’m doing fine

CHORUS: I only cry in my dreams.
I only cry in my dreams.
Nothing in me is what it seems,
Cause I cry…. In my dreams.

I only cry in my dreams.
I only cry in my dreams.
The sad leaks out when I’m asleep,
And I cry…. In my dreams.

VERSE 3: The more I hurt, the more I hide.
So no one knows what’s deep inside.
Ask all you want, but I’ll deny,
Cause I’m ok, I’m doing fine.

 REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE: I swore no man could take me down.
I’m strong, I said, I will not drown.
I built a case around my heart,
And then you took it all apart.

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 4: It’s so hard not to close my eyes,
But no matter what I try,
I drift away in the deep, dark night,
I will be well, I will be fine.

REPEAT CHORUS
REPEAT LAST LINE OF CHORUS
