In Dreams

Those thought of you that keep me up all night
Are surely wrong, but always feel so right
A single hope persuades my eyes to close
To dream of just one kiss, one touch, one rose

So wonderful to see you in my sleep
That waking from it causes me to weep
And when I do, a sadness fills my heart
With morning comes the truth that we’re apart

I wonder if it’s Love inside I feel
That makes me with my dreams could just be real
And time would pause to give us our one chance
To let our feelings grow, outside of circumstance

I’d cherish you and maybe I’d convince
You to be my girl, and I could be your prince
We’d look into each other’s eyes and dance
The beginning of a fairy-tale romance

One I dream of each and every night
And tell you now with each new rhyme I write
To touch your face or gently kiss your lips
Would be like sweetness on my fingertips

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

But one thing that I have is so divine
A place to go where you are always mine
Where kisses last forever, and roses are so red
We’ll always be together, in dreams within my head
