Only in My Dreams Lyrics

If at first you don't succeed at love
Just dream a little dream about a girl so real

When she don't call up no more, well
Never give up, you gotta believe it


[Hook]
If only in my dreams (only in my dreams)
If only in my dreams she'll be right there next to me


And if I could say, if only in my dreams
You're the luckiest girl
In the world there's no other more lucky in love, you don't have to explain it
Cause you're the one who's in love, and we'll have so much fun
On the beach, on the ocean of my dreamscape
Only in my dreams

If at first you don't succeed at love
Just dream a little dream about a girl so real
When she don't call up no more, well
Never give up, yeah, you gotta believe it

[Hook]

And if I could say, if only in my dreams
You're the luckiest girl
In the world there's no other girl luckier, you don't have to explain it
Cause you're the one who's in love, and we'll have so much fun
On the beach, on the ocean of my dreamscape
Only in my dreams
And if I could see that you'll be real with me
And we'll have so much fun, and it's just begun

If only in my dreams you're the luckiest girl
In the world there's no other more lucky in love, you don't have to explain
Cause you're the one who's in love
And we'll have so much fun
If only in my dreams

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

This is the 4th track off of Ariel Pink’s 2012 album Mature Themes.

The song’s about Pink coming to terms with a girl who may not return his ardor; it’s okay, he’ll just imagine.
