Like a Dream Upon Waking

Love's a spider on your face when you sleep
You feel it crawling but at least you know it's there
And you wish it would never wake you up
To realize its web of lies is everywhere

And it feels like you're fading
Like a dream upon waking
From a highlight into a shading
We are like a dream upon waking

Love is weaving you new silk sheets again
From the threads that you have just been hanging by
And once everything has been intertwined
The sleep's so tight that you can't spread your arms to fly

And it feels like you're fading
Like a dream upon waking
From a highlight into a shading
We are like a dream upon waking

You would've never believed
That you could be relieved
Not to feel it anymore
Hold on, hold on
It's gone

And it feels like you're fading
Like a dream upon waking
From a highlight into a shading
We are like a dream upon waking

And it feels like you're fading
Like a dream upon waking
From a highlight into a shading
We are like a dream upon waking
We are like a dream upon waking
