You look so fine as you walk up to me,
The love in our eyes clear for all to see
You hold me, and kiss me just like the first time
My soul is alive just to know that you’re mine

Then I wake up …

Chorus
Just a cruel trick of the mind, and a painful game with my heart.
When I dream that once more, we’re in love like before,
It’s just a cruel, cruel trick of the mind.

See your call on my phone and I smile deep inside,
You tell me you love me and secrets confide.
The sound of your breath is like music to me
Time’s frozen just for us, please let it be

Then I wake up …

Just a cruel trick of the mind, and a painful game with my heart.
When I dream once again that you’re calling my name,
It’s just a cruel, cruel trick of the mind.

Bridge
Dreams can be beautiful, they can seem so real
Dreams can be a curse if they won’t let my broken heart heal

Our bodies flow over waves of the sea
Locked in a sculpture of rhythmic harmony
We touch, we kiss, I look into your eyes
But now there’s darkness your smile can’t disguise

Then I wake up …

Just a cruel trick of the mind, and a painful game with my heart.
When I dream that last year didn’t end with a tear,
It’s just a cruel, cruel trick of the mind.
A painful game with my heart.
