When the lights are out in my lonely room
And the darkness hides the silver moon

One more one-night-room, with the TV on
Outside it's raining, I'm waiting for the dawn

I lie awake and dream of you
Though you're far away, are you dreaming, too?
I lie awake and dream of you
Tomorrow (tomorrow) I'll be (one) one day closer to you
Mmm

Look at me, girl, I'm living out my dreams
But the flash and the show, well, it's not what it seems

I lie here and drift away, now I'm stepping off the plane
I run to kiss your lips and see you smile again

I lie awake and dream of you
Though you're far away, are you dreaming, too?
I lie awake and dream of you
Tomorrow (tomorrow) I'll be (one) one day closer to you

I write the songs that come and come into my mind
They are visions of tomorrow, traces of yester-time

Some are happy, some are faded blue
But darling, oh darling (darling), this one's for you

I lie awake and dream of you
Though you're far away, are you dreaming, too?
I lie awake and dream of you
Tomorrow (Tomorrow) I'll be one day closer to you
