They're all twisted up inside
but they happen all of the time
These dreams I have running through my head
stop and go away when I sit up in bed

but when my eyes go dark it takes me back to start
Here come those dreams just like I said
I know I'm dreaming and they'll all go away when I sit up in bed

I know you've heard of a recurring dream
It's all in your head, it's all a big scheme
No I'm just kidding it really does exist
when all my dreams turn out like this

Take it from me I've lived through it all
So many dreams I can't recall
I can honestly say none of mine have come true
That's the reurring thing it's nothing new

When I forget how to breathe and I begin to dream
Sometime things are not what they seem
I tried to remember what you said
but you disappeared when I sat up in bed

I've always wondered what was beyond this dream
Would I finally know what this all means
Just when I think it's wrapped around my head
it all goes away when I sit up in bed

I know you've heard of a recurring dream
It's all in your head, it's all a big scheme
No I'm just kidding it really does exist
when my dreams are recurring like this

Oh yes of course you've been in all of my dreams
that's another part of the recurring thing
I never knew the words that you said
They were said after I sat up in bed

I live to sleep as I need to dream
The hours I'm awake don't mean a thing
Take me where I feel without the touch
I think to myself I could never dream too much

Night after night you fill my mind
in my recurring dream I have all of the time
I'm not sure if you heard what I said
It was just before I sat up in bed

I know you've heard of a recurring dream
It's all in your head, it's all a big scheme
No I'm just kidding they really do exist
when my dreams all turn out like this
