Elvis Costello when did i stop dreaming

Select language to translate this lyric

You appeared when I was lost in reverie
If this is not a dream it's my mistake
And now I lie in wait for dawn to break
I'm fairly sure I'm wide awake
Pardon me, if I seem distant and strange
Just tell me when did I stop dreaming?
Let me get this straight, did I hallucinate?
This fine and helpless feeling, tell me when did I stop dreaming?
Let me know if you can help me explain
I didn't recognise the danger but people will talk
Was I just sleepwalking? Footprints left on the ceiling
Tell me when did I stop dreaming?
Then why should you care? This was my nightmare
Was that one dream too deep? Now if I could only sleep
Answer me if you see the end in sight
I'm just a soul who's lost in limbo, neither bad or good
I'd spare you now if I could one more teardrop
Then I'll wake up, tell me when did I stop dreaming?
