i was dreaming when i jumped the lights

busy scaling dizzy heights

hummed a somewhat strangely familiar tune

my eyes as wide as open books

and from my ears upon two hooks

a big smile was hanging there like a crescent moon



it sometimes comes as quite a shock

when the gods of love decide to knock

you're in a state of disarray

just when you least expect it--you'll never know a better day



day dreaming fever taking over

no misdemeanour--stone cold sober



the officer who stopped me said: "lucky you didn't wind up dead!"

and he guessed that I was over and above

i hoped he'd only caution me, and i made a plea for clemency

on the grounds that i was only drunk on love



day dreaming fever taking over

no misdemeanour--stone cold sober



it sometimes comes as quite a shock

when the gods of love decide to knock

you're in a state of disarray

just when you least expect it--you'll never know a better day
