The Good Dream

Had a dream the other day
that someone special came my way
to open up my heart and let me live
she had my number, this is true,
but even so I'm telling you
she did not come to take but just to give

My life has been a lonely one
and though there's much that I have done
there never was another who could share
the secrets that I never told
my fear of slowly growing old
without a true companion who would care

But now if dreams can be,
I'm praying that this one's for me,
and even though I'd never heard
love's healing word before
I feel that she's the one
to carry on with what's begun,
within my heart she'll surely be
the key to Heaven's door

I didn't have the words to say
just how she made me feel that day
or how my soul was captured by her charms
but even dream girls understand
the loving touch of someone's hand
and how they feel when held by loving arms

Now dreams may come, and dreams may go,
with very little left to show
that they were ever even here at all,
yet in my heart I know, you see,
that she was dancing there with me
and that's a dream that's easy to recall

So now if dreams can be
I'm praying that this one's for me
and even though I'd never heard
love's healing word before
I feel that she's the one
to carry on with what's begun
within my haert she'll surely be
the key to Heaven's door
