There’s a place I used to know
I’m always drawn back there
Moments from a secret past
That I can never share
These are dreams I’ll always dream
And these are days that never come again
So were we really there
Or was it just a dream?
Memories so clear
Or only fantasy?
I don’t know any more
Couldn’t tell what is true
Feel the endless years of childhood
Say their long goodbye
Watch the last few days of summer
Burn across the sky
Who knows what the future holds
And who can see a clear way ahead?
This paradise or real life instead
Were we really there
Or was it just a dream?
Memories so clear
Or only fantasy?
I don’t know any more
Couldn’t tell what is true
Drifting away into the deep ocean
Slipping away into the dim distance now
Time seemed so much slower then
It goes so fast today
But coming back it’s just as though
I’d never been away
Souvenirs of far away
And photographs of weddings long ago
I never cared but now I want to know
Were we really there
Or was it just a dream?
Memories so clear
Or only fantasy?
Were we really there
Or was it just a dream?
Memories so clear
Or only fantasy?
I don’t know any more
Couldn’t tell what is true
What is true
What is true
