« I sang this on a night off in Tokyo in a disco with my backing singer B.J. Nelson. Some time later I showed my parents a video of this impromptu performance and they suggested I record it. It's a Jermaine Jackson/Michael Jackson song which we cooled down and tamed »   

Paroles :

Tell me I'm not dreaming
Tell me I'm not dreaming

Midnight
Images of you
You slipped
Slipped into my room
Oh, could be magic
Could be fantasy
Could it be that we're in love
Tell me I'm not dreaming

Oh your voice
Whispers in the dark
You know, you're talk
Talking to my heart
Are you with me?
Am I here with you?
Are we in paradise?
Tell me I'm not dreaming

Or are you
Too good to be true?
I wanna know
Are you ooh baby
Too good to be true?
Tell me I'm not dreaming

The light took me by surprise
The light coming from your eyes
Are you with me?
Am I here with you?
Are we in paradise?
Tell me I'm not dreaming

I know I've been here before
You go then you come back for more
Oh it's a mystery
How you disappear
Like a shadow in the night
Tell me I'm not dreaming

Are you, ooh baby
Too good to be true?
Tell me I'm not dreaming
Tell me I'm not dreaming

Oh when the morning comes
Wake me with your love
Let me know that
I'm not dreaming baby
Will you tell me
This is real
Tell me how you feel
Say it's what we both believe in
Tell me I'm not dreaming
