Hey, welcome to DV! I think i sent you a PM, but i'm not sure, i've welcomed that many people...
It's only a lucid dream if you were aware in the dream that you were dreaming. Sounds to me like you had a false awakening, and not a lucid dream. I've lost count of the number of times i've confused a false awakening with a lucid dream...
It gets better.
What are you doing at the moment to improve lucidity, or the getting of it? Have you started a dreamjournal?
That to me, is the most important thing of all...

Have you read the WILD tutorial? Maybe if you read that, you'll get past that stage. I can't give you that much advice on WILD, being as i've never been very good at it...and i don't get all that much time to practise...
