Vision To Dream On

I've seen your forbidden treasures,

But those riches I just can't hold

Though they shine just like a diamond,

And they're precious as pure gold

But someone is waiting to love me,

With a heart so strong and true

And though it might be easy to stay here,

I'm gonna walk away from you

I feel inside the burning of a love that just can't be

And nothing can quench this yearning

That builds inside of me

I've got more than a man could ask for

So wanting you is foolish dreams

Still, you're a vision to dream on,

But a memory I don't need

I know it's not much consolation, it's hard to bow out gracefully

Darlin', I just have to thank you, you always left it up to me

There'll be no consummation, but dreaming is not a crime

And you'll be a sweet inspiration, for a long long time
