Verse 1
It's been a happy day
Try not to spoil it, now
Please don't get hung up that way
Oh, he's not the boy for you
And I think you know it, too
Kiss him and don't start to cry
Chorus
Cause you're having a pipe dream, an ordinary pipe dream
(Now you see him flashing right before your eyes)
You're having a sweet dream, a lifelong sweet dream
(I'm the one who loves you, can't you see it's me?)

Come back to reality

Verse 2
Now, in your mind there's always me
That's the way it's gonna be
Kiss him and tell him goodbye
I say, you won't have to dream tonight
Tomorrow may be clear and bright
I think the pipe's going out
[repeat chorus]
Coda
(Hey!) Come back to reality
