FADED BLUE DREAMS
words & music by
Tim Ponzek © 1988

She stepped out of her robe,
as easy as I stepped out of my mind
Loving her had made me happy, loving her had made me blind
I was blind to the fact it was just a simple fling
and that was all
that was all
But I fell for her so quickly I didn’t see
that there was no place to fall

chorus
But in my Faded Blue Dreams, I still can see her beside me
Loving her seemed so good;
I thought she understood the way I feel;
but it wasn’t real
‘Cause in my Faded Blue Dreams,
her love still burns deep inside me
no matter how it seems
‘Cause she walked away not caring, that she was still wearing
my Faded Blue Dreams

She walked out of the room,
as easy as she walked out of my life
Though her voice had cast a spell, her goodbye was cast in ice
When the chord finally struck, & I realized there was nothing left to say
nothing left
Had I fooled myself for so long I never knew
love had always been one way

chorus
But in my Faded Blue Dreams, I still can see her beside me
Loving her seemed so good;
I thought she understood the way I feel;
but it wasn’t real

‘Cause in my Faded Blue Dreams,
I could be most anyplace, & slip into a dream and draw her near
I see her face in front of me, again she’s here
Right here, inside my Faded Blue Dreams.....

chorus (repeat)
