In Dreams

Those thought of you that keep me up all nightAre surely wrong, but always feel so rightA single hope persuades my eyes to closeTo dream of just one kiss, one touch, one rose

So wonderful to see you in my sleepThat waking from it causes me to weepAnd when I do, a sadness fills my heartWith morning comes the truth that we’re apart

I wonder if it’s Love inside I feelThat makes me with my dreams could just be realAnd time would pause to give us our one chanceTo let our feelings grow, outside of circumstance

I’d cherish you and maybe I’d convinceYou to be my girl, and I could be your princeWe’d look into each other’s eyes and danceThe beginning of a fairy-tale romance

One I dream of each and every nightAnd tell you now with each new rhyme I writeTo touch your face or gently kiss your lipsWould be like sweetness on my fingertips

A feeling I may never get to knowA place my heart may never get to goI’d never see how sweet this dream could beI’d never feel how warm your Love could be

But one thing that I have is so divineA place to go where you are always mineWhere kisses last forever, and roses are so redWe’ll always be together, in dreams within my head
