van morrison ♦ only a dream (no sax solo) ♦ stereo remix
Edit for headphones, April 2023. A song from the 2002 album "Down The Road", Van Morrison's twenty-ninth studio album. The album charted at #6 in the UK and #26 in the US, while consistently charting in the top 20 across Europe.
This song's bass sounds incredibly beautiful on the CD player in a car...
And as you may have expected, yes, I cut out the sax solo, now the song sounds so much better...
ONLY A DREAM
(Van Morrison)
only a dream that I had in the night
only a dream but it felt so right
we were standing in the moonlight
I was holding you tight but it was only a dream
only a dream and that knocked me off of my feet
only a dream we were dancing in the street
and the big band kept on playing on Bonaparte's retreat
but it was only a dream
only a dream but somebody tried and knock it down
only a dream but that dream is hangin' 'round
only a dream we were rolling in the snow
only a dream and we just couldn't to let go
I stood outside the window it was just like Romeo
but it was only a dream
only a dream but somebody tried to knock it down
only a dream but that dream still around
up on Mockingbird hill and I'm feeling no pain
all the birds are singing their oh so sweet refrain
if I had to do it all over, I'd do all the same things again
'cause there was only a dream
oh 'cause that was only a dream
knocked me off my feet
only a dream
we were dancing out in the street
and the big band kept on playing
on Bonaparte's retreat
but that was only a dream
oh but that was only just a dream
oh but that was only a dream
oh but that was only a dream
oh what a dream
