A Girl Can Dream

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

When I was a child, the story would say

Somebody would sweep you off your feet someday.

That's what I hoped would happen with you,

more then you could know.

I wanted to tell you, that my heart's in your hands.

I prayed for the day that I would get the chance,

'N just when I worked up, the courage to try.

Much to my surprise,

you had somebody else, yeah yeah.

'Cos these feelings, I keep to myself.

I may never get to hold you so tight,

I may never get to kiss you goodnight,

I may never get to look deep in your eyes,

or so it seems.

I always will be wishing you were mine,

I think about what could be all the time,

all the happiness that I could find.

Baby...a girl can dream.

From the moment I wake up, 'til I fall asleep,

I imagine you not with her, but with me.

Talking and laughing, sharing our dreams,

it's just a fantasy, 'cos you had somebody else,

'cos these feelings I keep to myself.

I may never get to hold you so tight,

I may never get to kiss you goodnight,

I may never get to look deep in your eyes,

or so it seems.

I always will be wishing you were mine,

I think about what could be all the time,

all the happiness that I could find.

Baby...a girl can dream.

A girl can dream...it's true,

and to call you my own,

it's the sweetest dream known.

I may never get to hold you so tight,

I may never get to kiss you goodnight,

I may never get to look deep in your eyes,

or so it seems.

I always will be wishing you were mine,

I think about what could be all the time,

all the happiness that I could find.

Baby...a girl can dream.

Ohh, a girl can dream.

(Hmmmm)
