[Verse 1] I wrote it on the ceiling With a shaky little grin Pressed it into paper Watched the whole thing spin I gave it a name In a room made of rain Hit publish with my thumb Then I felt it rearrange [Pre-Chorus] It had cover art It had comments too People said, “this one Feels like it knew you” My hands were steady My heart was loud I was famous for a second In a sleeping crowd [Chorus] I made a song in my dream I made it real I made a song in my dream Then it disappeared on me I woke up reaching For the thing I’d seen I made a song in my dream And it left with me [Verse 2] The title was perfect The hook was mine It fit like a key In a lock of time I heard it in the hallway On the back of my brain Now there’s only blank space Where the melody came [Pre-Chorus] I checked my phone I checked again Just an empty page Where it had been Even the chorus Slipped through my hand Like water writing On the kitchen pan [Chorus] I made a song in my dream I made it real I made a song in my dream Then it disappeared on me I woke up reaching For the thing I’d seen I made a song in my dream And it left with me [Bridge] Maybe it’s hiding In a part of me Under the noise Where I can’t see Maybe tonight It comes back around Same little spark Same first sound [Final Chorus] I made a song in my dream I made it real I made a song in my dream Then it disappeared on me I woke up reaching For the thing I’d seen I made a song in my dream And it left with me I made a song in my dream Come back to me
