But that was just a dream

Life is bigger.
It's bigger than you,
And you are not me.
The lengths that I will go to,
The distance in your eyes.
Oh, no, I've said too much.
I set it up.

That's me in the corner.
That's me in the spotlight,
Losing my religion,
Trying to keep up with you.
And I don't know if I can do it.
Oh, no, I've said too much.
I haven't said enough.
I thought that I heard you laughing.
I thought that I heard you sing.
I think I thought I saw you try.

Every whisper
Of every waking hour
 I'm choosing my confessions,
Trying to keep an eye on you,
Like a hurt, lost and blinded fool.
Oh, no, I've said too much.
I set it up.

Consider this
The hint of the century.
Consider this
The slip that brought me
To my knees, failed.
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around.
Now I've said too much.
I thought that I heard you laughing.
I thought that I heard you sing.
I think I thought I saw you try.

But that was just a dream,
That was just a dream.
