I have been here in this lonely place

Longer than I care to think or say

Hopin' with a little luck

Maybe I'd find someone like you



I have watched you nearly every morning

Gettin' your coffee, stretchin', yawnin'

Doin' all the little things you do

To start your day



[Chorus 1]

In my dreams I hold your hand

Lay my cheek close to yours

And hold back as long as I can

Feel the sweet sting of your kiss as our lips combine



I know that you've seen me, too

Once you smiled when I looked at you

I wonder if you thought about me

The way I thought of you



Maybe I just make too much of passing glances

Fleeting touches, maybe I'm a dreamer

Maybe so are you



[Chorus 2]



In my dreams I hold you close

Love you the way that I'd hope

Say what you already know

In my dreams I pretend

That you are mine
