Moonlight took me by surprise 'light coming from your eyes Are you with me Am I here with you Are we in paradise Tell me I'm not dreamin' I know I've been here before You go, then you come back for more It's a mystery how you disappear Like a shadow in the night Tell me I'm not dreamin' [Chorus] Are you too good to be true Tell me I'm not dreamin' Are you too good to be true Tell me I'm not dreamin' Midnight images of you You slipped, slipped into my room Could be magic, could be fantasy Could it be that we're in love Tell me I'm not dreamin' Your voice whispers in the dark You talk, talking to my heart Are you with me Am I here with you Are we in paradise Tell me I'm not dreamin' [Chorus] When the morning comes Wake me with your love Let me know that I'm not dreamin' Tell me this is real Show me how you feel Say it's what we both believe in [Chorus]
