The Dance

I can see
Dreams come true when I close my eyes
No more wishing in the dark
No living another life
My world becomes a place
Full of magic and fairy tales
I have more than I cloud want
Any fear that I have is gone
My room has set the stage
My life slowly disappears
Feel like I touch upon each star in the sky
And the windows that keep love out
Suddenly open wide
I dream he comes to me
Reaching out from the night
His eyes are filled with love
A love I know that I can trust
He shows how he cares for me
And when he takes me in his arms
Then we dance
Across the floor we float on air
We're at heaven's door
When we dance
That's all I'm living for
I believe
There's a heart longing just like mine
Someone I'll be holding close
Til then I must fantasize
About the boy I meet
All alone when the world's asleep
He only belongs to me
I wait for him secretly
And though he's far away
Though he's only in my mind
He seems so real to me
So much more than a dream
I just close my eyes
I think of him and that's enough
He's always there for me
And when he takes me in his arms
Then we dance
Across the floor we float on air
We're at heaven's door
When we dance
That's what I'm living for
Ohh we dance
Across the floor we float on air
We're heaven's door
When we dance
That's all I'm living for
