When I was a child the story would say

Somebody would sweep you off your feet someday

That's what I hoped would happen with you

More than you could know

I wanted to tell you that my heart's in your hands

I prayed for the day when I would get the chance

Just when I worked up the courage to try

Much to my surprise

You had somebody else

Cuz these feelings I keep to myself



[CHORUS:]

I may never get to hold you so tight

I may never get to kiss you goodnight

I may never get to look deep in your eyes

Or so it seems

I always will be wishing you were mine

I think about what could be all the time

All the happiness that I could find

Baby, a girl can dream



From the moment I wake up

'Til I fall asleep

I imagine you not with her but with me

Talkin' and laughin'

Sharin' our dreams

It's just a fantasy

Cuz you had somebody else

Cuz these feelings I keep to myself



[REPEAT CHORUS]



A girl can dream it's true

And to call you my own

Is the sweetest dream of all



[REPEAT CHORUS]



Oh a girl can dream
