Story behind the song

I wrote the original version of this song when I was a teenager.  I modified it to adapt it to work for my 2008 American Idol Song entry.

Lyrics

Another Silly Dream

lyrics and music by Mike Fisher

Verse 1
I can't help thinking about yesterday and how it might have been
Mistakes I made I was afraid I thought I couldn't win
I dreamed the dreams and the fantasies of every human heart
But deep inside my hope had died and of dreams I'd have no part
I never thought I'd see the day when God would hear my prayer
And send that dream that always seemed to me to be so rare


Pre-chorus 1
But that He's done and here I am just trying to explain
The reason why now my life will never be the same


Chorus 1
I can't believe that this is happening to me
It's just another silly dream
The way I feel it can't be real
It's just another silly dream


Verse 2
By rights there's no way I deserve something as wonderful as this
But now it's here and through all my tears I finally have my wish
It's more than I have dreamed of though so maybe there's a chance
Despite my doubt I'm finding out it's all part of God's plan
Could it be that this is real it's what I'm meant to do
All these things I thought were dreams are really coming true


Pre-chorus 2
Through what once were only cloudy visions now it's all become so clear
Now I know - that if I'd quit - I couldn't stand right here


Chorus 2
I now believe that this is happening to me
It's not another silly dream
The way I feel inside I know it's real
It's not another silly dream
