i'm living in dream city lost in dreams of you i'm living in dream city dreaming is all i do they're gonna cut off my water unplug my telephone if i don't stop my dreaming i will be out on the street alone i'm living in dream city dreaming i'm holding you near & this is where i'll be until you give me a ride out of here it's such a fine city i'm running down the halls it's a red wine city i'm bumping into walls i'm living in a palace i go from room to room close my eyes & see you i'm just chasing your perfume i'm living in dream city & the rent is rising fast i'm living in dream city i don't know how long i can last if you had never hugged me my feet would still touch the ground if you had never kissed me i'd be back in my hometown
