When did i stop dreaming?

You appeared when I was lost in reverie
If this is not a dream, it´s my mistake
And now I lie in wait for dawn to break
I´m fairly sure I´m wide awake
Pardon me, if I seem distant and strange
Just tell me when did I stop dreaming?
Let me get this straight
Did I hallucinate?
This fine and helpless feeling
Tell me when did I stop dreaming?
Let me know if you can help me explain
I didn´t recognise the danger
But people will talk
Was I just sleepwalking?
Footprints left on the ceiling
Tell me when did I stop dreaming?
Then why should you care?
This is my nightmare
Was this one dream too deep?
Now if I could only sleep
Answer me, if you see the end in sight
I´m just a soul who´s lost in limbo
Neither bad or good
I´d spare you now if I could
One more teardrop
Then I´ll wake up
Tell me when did I stop dreaming?
If this is not a dream, it´s my mistake
And now I lie in wait for dawn to break
I´m fairly sure I´m wide awake
Pardon me, if I seem distant and strange
Just tell me when did I stop dreaming?
Let me get this straight
Did I hallucinate?
This fine and helpless feeling
Tell me when did I stop dreaming?
Let me know if you can help me explain
I didn´t recognise the danger
But people will talk
Was I just sleepwalking?
Footprints left on the ceiling
Tell me when did I stop dreaming?
Then why should you care?
This is my nightmare
Was this one dream too deep?
Now if I could only sleep
Answer me, if you see the end in sight
I´m just a soul who´s lost in limbo
Neither bad or good
I´d spare you now if I could
One more teardrop
Then I´ll wake up
Tell me when did I stop dreaming?
