Well it started out just like a dream
and like a dream I knew that
what we had would have to end.
I was looking for a night time lover
(and) you were looking for a friend.
{bridge}
Someone to be there after all your night time lovers
had gone to where they came.
Someone who knew the way and help to play
your day time games.
It's not the same.
Well I started out pretending
that I'd come to mean enough to you
to make you want to change.
Then I came to realise that there was just too much of you
you had to rearrange
And I couldn't bear to wait around for all your
night time lovers to go to where they came
and then it came to hurt too much to me
to help to play your day time games
No one's to blame
Well it started out just like a dream
and like a dream I knew that
what we had would have to end.
