each night alone ... she appears in my dreams
pure fantasy true ... so real still they seem
I recall her sweet smile ... when we're apart
a picture so vivid ... framed with my heart
chills run down my spine ... whenever she's near
making me nervous ... though I've nothing to fear
wanting to hold her ... tight in my arms
look deep in her soul ... feel her heavenly charm
can we be different ... and still so the same
both searching for someone ... to share in life's game
how I want us to walk ... hand-in-hand, side-by-side
to support one another ... with each little stride
why does she not realize ... what she's doing to me
is she so frightened ... of the truth, she can't see
I want her to know me ... for all that I am
get lost in a dreamworld ... our own promise land
foolish am I ... to believe she would care
hesitant to yield ... or take such a dare
so I'll keep on waiting ... for some hint or glance
a sign letting me know ... that she's willing to chance
