Lyrics
I Can Only 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.
If you really saw the only girl I know
I have to dream a love affair
Like the vacantness that always hurts my flesh
I have to dream a love affair
Dream - I can only dream
Dream alone - you're not there
I'm doing time for an emotional crime
I have to dream a love affair
She's the sweetest girl in a changing world
I have to dream a love affair
Dream ...
With the body of eve and the clothes you wear
I have to dream a love affair
Dream
