Just A Dream Lyrics

[00:18.43] Uh, uh, uh (hey)
[00:20.33] I was thinking 'bout her (uh), thinking 'bout me (hey)
[00:23.25] Thinking 'bout us (us), what we gon' be (hey)
[00:26.12] Opened my eyes, yeah, it was only just a dream (hey)
[00:30.96] So I travelled back (uh) down that road
[00:33.80] Will she come back? (Back) No one knows
[00:36.69] I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream
[00:42.65] I was at the top and now it's like I'm in the basement
[00:45.48] Number one spot and now she found her a replacement
[00:48.39] I swear now I can't take it
[00:51.06] Knowing somebody's got my baby
[00:53.44] And now you ain't around baby I can't think
[00:56.44] I should've put it down, should've got the ring
[00:59.04] 'Cause I can still feel it in the air
[01:01.34] See her pretty face, run my fingers through her hair
[01:03.68] My love of my life, my shawty, my wife
[01:08.64] She left me, I'm tight
[01:11.41] 'Cause I knew that it just ain't right
[01:13.67] I was thinking 'bout her (uh), thinking 'bout me (hey)
[01:16.83] Thinking 'bout us (us), what we gon' be (hey)
[01:19.33] Opened my eyes, yeah, it was only just a dream (hey)
[01:24.24] So I travelled back (uh) down that road
[01:27.26] Will she come back? (Back) No one knows
[01:29.97] I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream
[01:35.49] When I be ridin', man, I swear I see her face at every turn
[01:38.68] Tryna get my Usher on but I can't let it burn
[01:41.22] And I just hope she know that she the only one I yearn for
[01:44.42] More and more I miss her, when will I learn?
[01:46.48] Didn't give her all my love, I guess now I got my payback
[01:49.28] Now I'm in the club thinking all about my baby
[01:52.00] Hey, she was so easy to love
[01:54.80] But wait, I guess that love wasn't enough
[01:57.26] I'm going through it every time that I'm alone
[01:59.83] And now I'm missing, wishing she'd pick up the phone
[02:02.46] But she made the decision that she wanted to move on
[02:05.32] 'Cause I was wrong
[02:06.85] I was thinking 'bout her (uh), thinking 'bout me (hey)
[02:09.85] Thinking 'bout us (us), what we gon' be (hey)
[02:12.58] Opened my eyes, yeah, it was only just a dream (hey)
[02:17.67] So I travelled back (uh) down that road
[02:20.56] Will she come back? (Back) No one knows
[02:23.27] I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream (uh, uh, hey)
[02:28.96] If you ever loved somebody put your hands up (put your hands up)
[02:31.62] If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
[02:34.12] And now they're gone and you're wishing
[02:35.85] You could give them everything (everything, hey)
[02:39.64] Said if you ever loved somebody put your hands up (put your hands up)
[02:42.38] If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
[02:44.95] Now they're gone and you're wishing
[02:46.60] You could give them everything (uh, uh, uh)
[02:49.62] I was thinking 'bout her (uh), thinking 'bout me (hey)
[02:52.68] Thinking 'bout us (us), what we gon' be (hey)
[02:55.23] Opened my eyes, yeah, it was only just a dream (hey)
[03:00.38] So I travelled back (uh) down that road
[03:03.15] Will she come back? (Back) No one knows
[03:05.93] I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream (uh, uh, uh)
[03:11.17] I was thinking 'bout her (uh), thinking 'bout me (hey)
[03:14.07] Thinking 'bout us (us), what we gon' be (hey)
[03:16.55] Opened my eyes, yeah, it was only just a dream (hey)
[03:21.66] So I travelled back (uh) down that road
[03:24.56] Will she come back? (Back) No one knows
[03:27.35] I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream
[03:27.94]
