A Phantom And A Flame

I once had a dream

A wonderful dream

Of Trevi fountains

And Himalayan mountains 

But it's all stardust now

And all that's left for me now

Are a phantom and a flame

I once had a dream 

A wonderful dream 

Of my arm around her waist 

And my verse around her heart

But she's all stardust now 

And all that's left for me now

Are a phantom and a flame

I once had a dream 

A wonderful dream

But the dream became a nightmare 

And I was left naked and afraid 

With nothing

But a phantom and a flame
