Real As A Dream - Lyrics and Music by Chris Kokesh
(c) 1999 Chris Kokesh (ASCAP)

I tamed the winged horse
I slayed the giant 
I found the magic beans
I grew the beanstalk
I climbed for hours
I saw our whole kingdom stretched out for me

I brought you the winged horse
Gave you the treasure
Showed you the fairy tree
I pointed out dragons
Showed you our kingdom
Thought you could share it all with me

CHORUS:
I told the stories and I believed
But now I know
The fairies that I've seen
Were dust in a sunbeam 
And a promise is real as a dream

You couldn't see fairies
You weren't up for fighting
You made that perfectly clear
You rescued a damsel
What was the danger
The one in danger here is me

CHORUS:
I told the stories and I believed
But now I know 
The fairies that I've seen
Were dust in a sunbeam 
And a promise is real as a dream

You on your white horse
Made for the sunset
You and your princess bride
Is this the end of the story
I fight the dragons
You get the glory

CHORUS:
I told the stories and I believed
But now I know 
The fairies that I've seen
Were dust in a sunbeam 
And a promise is real as a dream
