A Girl Can Dream

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 than 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 Just when I worked up the courage to try, much to my surprise You had somebody else 'cause 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 'Cause you had somebody else 'cause 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 in all 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, oh, a girl can dream
