I used to dream myself to somewhere else each night, I dreamed in colour, 'cause I lived in black and white, Until I chanced upon this road that led to you, I could not see, how anything could be...
Refrain: Better than a dream, stranger than my wild imagination, If this is a real sensation It's better than a dream. Higher than the moon, hazy like a beautiful illusion, Crazy and in confusion And better than a dream.
I used to wish I was beyond some distant door, I knew there must be more to life and now I'm sure, No dream of pirate caves or indian braves, Or magic carpets could ever be this good.
[Refrain]
[Instrumental break]
Higher than the moon, hazy like a beautiful illusion, Crazy and in confusion And better than a dream.
