I had a dream

Wonder if any of you had a dream, and you just didn't want to wake up from it?
I had one this morning, and I really didn't want to get up.
In it the ultimate impossible thing happened to me, so much so the dream felt real. Maybe it was just me wanting it to be real, normally I would know that I'm dreaming eventually and wake up, but this time it was different. I wanted it to go on and on, despite the fact the dream got more and more ludicious, and it got more and more apparent that it was a dream, but still I wanted to dream.
Maybe it is just a manifestation of those pent up emotions and desires hidden within me, denied even by my own consciousness.
Sighz. Like they say, desires are empty. As much as I want to dream, I woke up in the end. And all memory of that sweet dream faded away rapidly. Why pursue impossible desires and chase the uncatchable? Why, indeed? Why did the dream appear out of the blue? To remind me of my joke of a facade, telling me to ditch my cavalier attitude, and feel the dirt like everyone else, to not let these emotions bottle up inside me?
Before my heck-the-world attitude returns, I think this song is rather appropriate for now.

"If You're Not The One"

If you’re not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?
If you’re not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call
If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all

I never know what the future brings
But I know you are here with me now
We’ll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with

I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

If I don’t need you then why am I crying on my bed?
If I don’t need you then why does your name resound in my head?
If you’re not for me then why does this distance maim my life?
If you’re not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife?

I don’t know why you’re so far away
But I know that this much is true
We’ll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And I pray in you’re the one I build my home with
I hope I love you all my life

I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

‘Cause I miss you, body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away
And I breathe you into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today
‘Cause I love you, whether it’s wrong or right
And though I can’t be with you tonight
And know my heart is by your side
