[Verse 1]

Well it started out just like a dream

And like a dream I knew that what we had

Would have to end

'Cause I was lookin' for a

Lifetime lover and

You were lookin' for a friend

[Chorus]

Someone to be there

After all your night time lovers had gone

The way they came

Someone who knew the way

And helped to play your daytime game

It's not the same

[Verse 2]

Well I started out pretending that I'd

Come to mean enough to you to make

You want to change

Then I came to realize that

There was just too much of you you'd have

To rearrange

[Chorus]

And I couldn't bear to wait around

For all your night time lovers to go

The way they came

And it came to hurt too much for me

To have to play your daytime games

No one's to blame

[Verse 3]

'Cause it started out just like a dream

And like a dream I knew that what we had

Would have to end

'Cause I was lookin' for a

Lifetime lover and

You were lookin' for a friend

I was lookin' for a

Lifetime lover and

You were lookin' for a friend
