Lyrics

[Verse 1] One cold damp evening The world stood still I watched as I held my breath A silhouette I thought I knew Came through, someone spoke to me Whispered in my ear This fantasy's for you Fantasies are in this year [Verse 2] My whole life flashed, before my eyes I thought, what they say is true I've shed my skin And my disguise And cold and naked I Emerged from my cocoon And a half-remembered tune Played softly in my head, he said [Bridge] He turns smiling And he said: [Refrain] I realise a miracle is due I dedicate this melody to you I realise a miracle is due I dedicate this melody to you But is this the stuff dreams are made of? If this is the stuff dreams are made of No wonder I feel like I'm floating on air No wonder I feel like I'm floating on air I realise a miracle is due I dedicate this melody to you But is this the stuff dreams are made of? If this is the stuff dreams are made of No wonder I feel like I'm floating on air No wonder I feel like I'm floating on air No wonder I feel like I'm floating on... Air [Bridge] Everywhere Oh, it feels like I'm everywhere [Outro] Like when you fail to make the connection You know how vital it is Oh, when something slips through your fingers You know how precious it is Oh, when you reach the point when you know It's only your second skin It's only your second skin (Something's banging on my door) Like when you fail to make the connection You know how vital it is (Someone's banging on my door) Oh, when something slips through your fingers You know how precious it is (Something's banging on my door) Oh, when you reach the point when you know It's only your second skin (Someone's banging on my door) (Something's banging on my door) (Someone's banging on my door)
