"Dreams (AKA Just A Dream)" lyrics

Well I wanna tell a story
About a hard luck guy
Nobody seems to love me
I guess that's the reason why
Just dream
Dreams all night long and through the day
Yes, and it's so sad
Oh, to break my heart this way

Yes, I'm not handsome or romantic
I don't have wavy hair
Won't you girls please have mercy
The way you treat me ain't fair
Why does bad luck follow me?
Oh dreams, seems that's all that's left for me

Well I just can't get no place
But the doggone thing I planned
I think all the time my luck
Don't belong to some other man
Why, why, where is the one I'm dreaming of?
Oh gone, gone with last night's dream of love

Yes, last night as I lay sleeping
I dreamed about a queen
And it hurt me so bad, people
To wake up and find out it was just a dream
Dream, dream is all I can do
Oh I'm so tired dreaming dreams
A dream that won't come true
