If only you could see, if only you could see
You're the only girl I've ever dreamed of
If only you could see, if only you could see
Should I apologize
To such pathetic eyes
Just the sight of you has made me sick tonight (tonight)
It was your poison kiss
That turned me into this
Then again there is a chance you could be mine (tonight)
Darling will you please, take a walk with me
We can count the stars that disappear (I wish you could see)
I wish you could see, you're the only girl I've ever dreamed of
Are you satisfied?
What fate has lead me here, oh please forgive me dear
And I don't know if I can survive on my own (my own)
I could have married you, instead I buried you
Now we'll see if I can fall asleep alone (alone)
Darling will you please, take a walk with me
We can count the stars that disappear (I wish you could see)
I wish you could see, your the only girl I've ever dreamed of
Are you satisfied?
Are you satisfied, the nightmare's coming true
Are you satisfied, girl it's only you
Are you satisfied, I'm telling you the truth
Are you satisfied?
I wish you could see, your the only girl I've ever dreamed of
Darling will you please, take a walk with me
We can count the stars that disappear (I wish you could see)
I wish you could see, your the only girl I've ever dreamed of
Are you satisfied?
The depth of a man's soul
Can not be measured in a matter
Of meters and fathoms
But rather it is in my opinion
Only quantified by his proximity
To heaven and hell
It was in such a state that
I ushered myself past
The town tavern
Bursting at the seams with
The sounds of laughter
And drunken piano playing
Had it only been a different night
A different place, a different kind
Of man passing by the threshold
Of that innocent pub
The events that transpired
At that point would have
Undoubtedly been drastically different
I can only guess if anyone outside that place
Had a clue when the exclamations
Of mirth became the desperate
Screams of helpless
Begging for their very lives
